About 50 young people threw firebombs and fireworks at riot police in Edinburgh.
About 50 young people have clashed with riot police in Edinburgh with fireworks and petrol bombs being thrown directly at officers.
A statement said officers were pursuing a number of individuals who they believe were providing youths with fireworks and petrol bombs to target police.The videos showed officers being bombarded with explosives while teenagers gathered on a green, with some filming it. And at about 21:00 in Glasgow officers responded to a report of two groups of youths fighting and throwing fireworks at one another in the Quarrywood Avenue area of Barmulloch.Assistant Chief Constable Tim Mairs, gold commander of Operation Moonbeam, said a minority of individuals had been responsible for "unacceptable and frankly, disgusting level of disorder that left communities alarmed and police officers injured".
A spokesperson confirmed the incidents followed four previously reported attacks on crews in Ayrshire and Edinburgh in the week leading up to Bonfire Night, as well as two further attacks over the weekend in Troon and Glasgow. "This type of behaviour not only prevents our crews from bringing any emergency to a safe and swift conclusion, but it can impact on our emergency service colleagues - including the police - when they are supporting us on scene to ensure the safety of our personnel."Between 15:30 on Sunday and midnight the SFRS received more than 892 calls from the public and mobilised firefighters to approximately 355 bonfires across the country.
