23.26 - On indymedia are pictures (here also) from the demo.

19.05 - Two people from Germany are detained by the police, they may be given rather serious charges. At the police station on Wilcza Street one Warsaw activist is being held. The reasons for detaining the activist are not yet known, and the detention will probably not last long.

17.20 - there is not yet any confirmation of where the two detained people are being held. The police are providing varying responses regarding where the two are being held. About 30 antifascists are trying to find them at the moment, however, the police at ul. Wilcza 21 are noting everyone's identities rather than answering the question.

16.10 - anarchists and other anti-fascists are moving in the direction of the police station at 12 Dzielna Street, where it seems that two foreign anti-fascists are detained (including the German anarchist referred to earlier).

15.40 - we have received reports that the police have detained several more anti-fascists. Some of them are surrounded by a police cordon.

15.30 - the demo is ending at Theatre Square [plac Teatralny], now there are speeches, in 10 minutes it will end.

15.15 - speeches continue at Theatre Square from the motorised platforms. There has been an unconfirmed report that the German anarchist has been released. If this turns out to be false, then a solidarity action in front of the police station is planned.

14.50 - situation calmed down. The demo is going to Bankowy square.

14.45 - about 20-30 NOP-ers attacked the demonstrators. A struggle occurred.

14.15 - The head of the Parade is moving along Marszałkowska street. There are a few thousand people: about 5000 from Konstytucji Place to the Rotunda. There are two sound platforms on cars with speakers. We have reports that NOP-ers are trying to enter the crowd in order to attack individual people.

13.50 - the demonstration has got to place Konstytucji and is starting up Marszałkowska street. Slogans: "Wierzejski! Your brother Hitler, had a whip for gays", "Romek [ed. Roman Giertych] - think of your wife, not about gays", "the Equality March keeps going". People are waving from windows to the demonstrators. Peaceful atmosphere.

13.25 - there have already been some minor scuffles between nationalists and the anarchist blok, but now not much is happening.

13.15 - there are already some counter-demonstrators, a few dozen people, mainly from NOP and ONR. In their direction can be heard: "National stupidity", etc. In the Parade, there's a rather big mix of demonstrators: from gay and independent organisations and from leftist political parties. The banners read: "Europe=Tolerance", "Bolek i Lolek [ed. brothers in a children's story, refers to Kaczyński brothers] - give them the right to love", "Mr President, your brother is gay", "Fascists of every country - nick off", etc. The close-knit anarchist blok is also clear, in which some of the people are masked.

13.05 - people are gathering under the Sejm (parliament), at the moment around 1500 people, but more and more are continuing to arrive. The anarchist blok is gathering too, with several dozen people, but there are reports that another group of about 150 anarchists are still coming.

12.00 - we have reports that at the place where the Equality Parade is planning to start, there are lots of police, checking people's identities and they're rather agressive.
