For the fourth time in a month, neo-Nazis attacked anti-fascist activists in Bryansk, Russia, according to a March 24, 2008 report by the Sova Information-Analytical Center. Two neo-Nazis ambushed a participant in the "Food Not Bombs" project, which feeds homeless people and promotes anti-fascist ideas. The assailants knocked their victim to the ground and kicked him several times in the head on March 23. A day before in Oryol, two neo-Nazis armed with knives attacked an anti-fascist activist participating in that city's "Food Not Bombs" action. The intended victim, a musician, managed to fight off his attackers long enough to flee before being injured. It is not known if these attacks are linked--Bryansk and Oryol are located relatively nearby each other, but neo-Nazis regularly attack "Food Not Bombs" rallies throughout the country.
