Fascist anthem played as bullfighting returns to Mallorca

Far-right Vox leader shows support while animal welfare activists protest

Hundreds of animal rights activists protested outside the bullring in Palma de Mallorca at the weekend as bullfighting returned to the island for the first time since it was outlawed in 2017.

Around 400 protestors chanted: "It's not art, it's torture" and "No to bullfighting", while inside the ring 12,000 people waited to watch some of Spain's top toreros (bullfighters) enter the ring.
