Around 1,500 people gathered on Saturday evening in Bern for the first Anti-Fascist march since 2015.

The march was largely peaceful, although there were some incidents involving stone throwing – and police having to use pepper spray one point. 

Organisers said they were sorry that some marchers failed to follow instructions not to cause any damage.

But a large contingent of riot police and a water cannon were not needed.
