Polish nationals gather outside the UK parliament in a 2015 anti-racism rally
Poland's embassy in London has decried a racially motivated attack by up to 20 teenagers that left a Polish man hospitalised in the northern city of Leeds, the latest in a series of hate crimes against Poles in the UK.
Following the attack, the Polish embassy said it was "saddened by another assault" on one of its citizens in the UK, where there have been around 30 "xenophobic incidents" in recent months.
"The Consular Section of the Polish Embassy in London offered assistance in [a] further 17 cases in the South and the Midlands."
WestYorkshire Police has appealed for witnesses to the attack to come forward.
