Gay Pride was observed in Zagreb, Croatia over the weekend where ten people were reported injured. Police arrested eight individuals and seized what appeared to be Molotov cocktails, according to the Associated Foreign Press.

Approximately 200 people took part in the march.
The Croatian Social-Liberal Party (HSLS) condemned those attacking the marchers, reported media outlet Javno.

"We especially condemn the brutal attack on 15 participants of the parade and welcome the efficient intervention of Ministry of the Interior representatives while protecting Gay pride participants, it is stated in the HSLS announcement .

They also remind that one of the fundamental principles of this party is that all people have equal and inalienable rights regardless of race, nationality, religion, gender, political and other believes and points of view, social status and all other differences.

This was Croatia's sixth Gay Pride march.
