An international right-wing conference in Brussels has been allowed to go ahead on its second day after a ban by the local mayor was overturned.
Belgium's top administrative court said in an overnight ruling that the ban violated the country's constitutional right to peaceful assembly.
Mayor Emir Kir had said he wanted to ensure public security.
But Mr Kir later confirmed the conference would go ahead - although he said he would remain "vigilant".
Brexiteer Nigel Farage, Hungary's Prime Minister Viktor Orban and several other right-wing European politicians are attending the event.
