Alleged homophobic hunt in Valencia: e-scooters and far-right groups under scrutiny
Warnings have been circulating over the past few hours about an alleged homophobic attack in Valencia, Spain. According to anonymous messages spreading on social media, a group of young men travelling on electric scooters would have attacked several people at different points in the city. The modus operandi fits what some identify as "far-right on scooters", a sight already familiar from previous episodes of street violence.
The seriousness of the matter has divided opinion. On one hand, some are calling for official confirmation and denouncing that panic is being spread without evidence. On the other, others point out that the pattern matches previous actions by fringe groups such as Núcleo Nacional, although sources close to that milieu deny it and blame infiltrators. Among the comments, taunts are not lacking: "If you go out to get your arse desecrated for 20 euros, the risk is a different one", one user wrote, mixing sens and violence with a cynicism that hardly helps clarify the facts.
Reality or hoax? The question remains open. What is certain is that Valencia has been living with latent tension between LGTBI groups and far-right organisations for months. With no police reports or official statements, the "lgtb hunt" warned about on social media remains, for now, an unconfirmed alert.
