Belfast stabbing spurs anti-immigration protests as police probe motive
A man in his 40s was seriously injured in a brutal Belfast stabbing; a Sudanese man in his 30s was detained on suspicion of attempted murder as police investigate motive. Graphic video of the attack circulated online, fueling far-right calls for anti-immigration protests across Northern Ireland. Police say there is no current evidence of a terrorist link, and authorities urge calm and not to share the footage. Prime Minister Keir Starmer condemned the attack; the incident feeds into broader debates over immigration and ongoing regional tensions.
