Several hundred LGBT activists attended a rally in central St. Petersburg to mark the International Day Against Homophobia. The rally's organisers had police permission and a promise to tighten security. In the event only a small number of homophobes turned up to protest at the rally. However, a handful of homophobes attacked the buses taking the LGBT activists home. /Felix Features (MANDATORY CREDIT photo: Mads Nissen/Panos Pictures /Felix Features)
