The police are also investigating the journalists assaulted at the Fidesz event on October 23.

The Budapest Police initiated an investigation into incidents involving journalists during the Fidesz Flag March on October 23. Two main incidents were reported: a reporter from Kontroll, Balázs Kiss, faced verbal aggression and harassment, particularly from Zsolt Bede, editor of a Fidesz-affiliated outlet, who disrupted their live broadcast and incited hostility among bystanders. Additionally, Telex operator Barnabás Bakos was physically assaulted by a woman, resulting in a broken pair of glasses. The Telex team also encountered tensions with counter-protesters at the event, leading to a recommendation from police to leave the area. Both journalists have been contacted by the police regarding these incidents.
