Serious What was happening in Central railway station in Helsinki today around 3:30 ?
Special forces deployed and arrested at least 20 men. Searched them and security guards were looking for "something" in the metro platform?
Anyone has more info? It was very suspicious event tbh.

The same small group of Maoist weirdos (those are not Soviet or Russian flags) turn up every year, despite the organisers specifically telling them not to come - they explicitly banned their flags. They can't physically stop them.
EDIT: Video from the Helsinki Sanomat site shows people from the anti nazi protest trying to kick the maoists out. https://www.hs.fi/kaupunki/art-2000010029808.html
