water cannons: Fifteen already have been charged with damaging property, Borisov said after arriving at the camp early Friday, according to Brandon Sun. Police said about 2,000 migrants, most from Afghanistan, were involved in the conflict that reportedly erupted over the camp being put under quarantine following an alleged outbreak of infectious diseases and an outbreak of panic among local residents. Prime Minister Boyko Borisov said all the detainees would be removed from the camp in Harmanli and placed in locked reception centres while their involvement in Thursday unrest if investigated. Chanting slogans, migrants allegedly set fires and threw rocks at police, who responded with water cannons and rubber bullets. Speaking to reporters, he expressed concern that terror groups could exploit simmering tensions such as the ones at the Harmanli camp. Two dozen police officers and two refugees were injured, the prime minister said. . Borisov cancelled a previously scheduled visit to Hungary on Friday and called an emergency meeting with all heads of law enforcement services.
