Wales fans attending the World Cup in Qatar have had items of rainbow-themed clothing confiscated ahead of their side's opening game against the USA on Monday evening.
Rainbow versions of the iconic Welsh bucket hat had been produced as a show of support for the LGBTQ+ community, with the tournament taking place in a country where homosexuality is illegal.
The Rainbow Wall, Wales' official LGBTQ+ supporters' group, said they were "so proud" of the hats they had sold ahead of the tournament but were devastated to hear that female fans who had worn them to the game had been told to remove them.
