NATO opponents and supporters clash in Ukraine
Opponents and supporters of Ukraine's entry into NATO have clashed in Crimea's largest city of Simferopol.
Police tried to separate the two parties, which were holding simultaneous meetings in the central square of the city. However, verbal abuse triggered a fight involving about 150 people.
The NATO opponents, mostly communists, threw tomatoes, eggs and cartons of juice at their rivals. They were carrying posters, which read 'NATO Is War Against Slavs' and 'Neo-Fascism Won't Succeed.'
