Dozens of Finnish nationalists, including a man dressed like a member of the Ku Klux Klan, hurled rocks and fireworks late on Thursday at a bus carrying migrants seeking asylum to temporary housing in Finland, the state broadcasterYLE reported.

Reporters in Lahti, about 60 miles north of the capital, Helsinki, recordedvideo of the bus— which carried men, women and children from Iraq — being pelted with the kind of smoke bombs often used by fans at soccer matches as it arrived at a former army barracks in the Hennala district in southern Finland.

Before the bus arrived, the crowd of about three dozen protesters also threw rocks at Finnish Red Cross volunteers waiting to welcome the asylum seekers.
