LONDON, October 5 - RIA Novosti. About three hundred people took part in an anti-migrant protest in the British seaside town of Gosport after two ships carrying illegal immigrants docked there, the Telegraph newspaper reports.

Earlier, two Royal National Life Saving Society (RNLI) vessels removed the 149 migrants from the dinghy and transported them to Gosport, Hampshire. The police began arriving at the site of the alleged meeting of migrants and demonstrations at least several hours before the start of the action.

"Protesters lit flares during a clash with police in Hampshire after nearly 150 cross-Channel migrants disembarked," the Telegraph reported.

Protesters tried to block roads to prevent police from taking migrants out of the city. However, later several buses were still able to leave Gosport and headed to Dover, accompanied by police. It is expected that there migrants will be placed in temporary detention centers, where they will undergo the paperwork procedure. Six protesters were detained by police.

The boat set sail at about six in the morning (8.00 Moscow time) on Sunday from the vicinity of Utah Beach in Normandy. This is the third such incident in the last month.
