Excerpt:
The start of Islam's holy month of Ramadan was marred in Bulgaria when tensions among a group of Muslims escalated into a brawl in a mosque, local reports said Thursday.
The fist-fight, which involved some 200 people, broke out at evening prayer between the supporters of newly-elected head mufti Mustafa Hadzhi and those of his predecessor Nedim Gendzhev.
Despite reports that some of the brawlers had been armed with knives, only slight injuries were reported after police broke up the crowd.
