Violence following Turkey's defeat of Croatia in the Euro 2008 quarter-final last night has led to several people being admitted to hospital. Around 1,000 police cordoned off Mostar town centre and used teargas to separate the rival fans, who hurled rocks and bottles at each other. Gunshots and car alarms rang out as fans attacked cars and smashed nearby shop windows.
Many Bosnian Muslims back Turkey in international competitions, an allegiance founded on five centuries of Ottoman rule - whereas Croats regard the Croatian national team as their own.
