At least 35 protesters were arrested following a clash with riot police at Din Daeng anti-government protests on Sunday.
Protesters on motorcycles began gathering at Din Daeng intersection, which has been the focus of rallies in the past week, at 5pm.
They threw ping-pong bombs and firecrackers as they moved towards police who surrounded the Royal Thai Army Band Department on Vibhavadi Rangsit Road.
Police fired tear gas, leading to a confrontation. To disperse the crowd, police used water cannons and began making arrests.
At least 35 protesters were detained and their motorcycles seized on Sunday. Around 6.15pm, police were finally able to contain the rally at Din Daeng intersection and push back the protesters towards Victory Monument.
Police were ordered by the national police chief to adjust their tactics on Saturday to reduce the impact on nearby communities, following complaints from residents near the protest site about rubber bullets and tear gas canisters ending up on their property.
