Thousands take to the streets in Europe and Australia to protest new restrictions on the spread of the corona virus.
The situation was tense in The Hague, the Netherlands, and the night before, the situation in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, was unpleasant.The day before, peaceful protests were taking place in other cities in the Netherlands, but during the tensions in the cities, protesters hurled stones at police and set fire to bicycles.
Some people were also arrested during this time.
It should be noted that Europe is facing a new wave of corona virus and sanctions have been tightened in many countries.
A partial lockdown was announced in Austria on Friday.
The Netherlands also imposed a partial lockdown last Saturday, with bans for at least three weeks.
The administration now intends to ban the entry of non-vaccinated persons in some places, which has been dubbed the 2G option.
2G stands for genezen and gevaccineerd, a Dutch category for vaccinated and cured people.On the other hand, thousands of people gathered in Amsterdam against the recent sanctions.
Thousands more marched against the lockdown in the southern city of Breda, near the Belgian border.
Organizers of the march said they were opposed to Prime Minister Mark Rutta's plan to bar unvaccinated people from entering bars and restaurants.
"People want to live, that's why we're here," said organizer Just Eras.
