A gay sauna in the Hungarian capital of Budapest has been targeted with a firebomb, in the week's second attack on gay businesses.

Police said that one person was injured on Wednesday night when Molotov cocktails were thrown into a gay sauna. Last Friday a similar attack occurred at a gay bar.

One person was injured in Wednesday's attack, but there were no injuries in the bombing on Friday.

The gay community in the city is fearful that more violence could occur during this week's 13th LGBT Film and Cultural Festival and at the city's Pride march on Saturday.
