BUDAPEST, Hungary — "Thousands of protesters rallied for the fourth week in Hungary’s capital on Tuesday, denouncing a new law passed by populist Prime Minister Viktor Orbán’s nationalist government banning LGBTQ Pride events.

"The legislation, fast-tracked through parliament in March, prohibits events depicting #homosexuality to those under the age of 18 and has drawn comparisons to Russia’s anti-LGBTQ policies. It comes as Orbán’s administration is increasingly accused of democratic backsliding ahead of national elections next year.

"The weekly protests in #Budapest have persisted, and on Tuesday, demonstrators filled the #ErzsébetBridge over the #Danube, demanding the withdrawal of the law. Some planned to remain on the bridge throughout the night and said there were plans to shut down all five central Danube bridges.

No violence was immediately reported.

"The law makes it an offense to hold or attend events such as Pride, which some legal experts and human rights groups say is #Orbán’s latest crackdown on Hungary’s #LGBTQ community and an arbitrary restriction on the #RightToAssembly."
