In several countries of Europe on weekends on November 20-21, large-scale protests were held against tightening (or preservation) of covid restrictions.
In Italy, such protests last more than four months. However, in the fall, they became more numerous after the introduction of “green passports” about vaccination, which are now needed to get to work, go to the cafe or go to another city. The action on the night of November 21 in Rome looked like this:
Even more protests were held in Vienna. They were attended by up to 40 thousand people. Several people were detained due to screaming with the police.
From November 22, Lokdown is introduced in Austria for 20 days - sports, cultural and entertainment events will be canceled, cafes, restaurants and shops, except for selling primary goods, are closed. After 10 days, restrictive measures can be revised. After the Lockdown, the restrictions will remain in force for the unevaccous residents of the country. Austria authorities also announced that they are preparing a legislative basis for compulsory vaccination. It is expected to be introduced from February 1.
In the Netherlands, where the authorities introduced a partial Lokdown for three weeks (for example, cafes and shops were obliged to close no later than 20 hours), shares in several cities at once outgrown into large -scale riots. For example, in the Hague they began on the evening of November 20 and continued until one in the morning. Protesters threw stones and fireworks at police officers, five policemen suffered. In the cities of Alkmar and Almelo, fans who are forbidden to attend matches due to covid measures erupted into stadiums. Because of this, the matches were suspended.
And in Rotterdam, on the night of November 20, clashes with the police occurred. More than 50 people were arrested.
Protests against covid restrictions in recent days have passed in Northern Ireland, Croatia, Switzerland and other countries. They gathered from several hundred to several thousand people.
Dissatisfied went out into the streets in Australia. The shares were held in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisben, Perth and Adelaide. There they protest against tough restrictions and a bill, which expands the rights of the authorities during the pandemic. This week in Melbourne, the protesters occupied approaches to the building of the local parliament, and also staged the execution of the prime minister of Victoria Daniel Andrews (the policy on the gallows depicted his inflatable doll).
In Russia, a variety of shares are also held against the introduction of QR code. For example, on November 19, in Volgograd, protesters against the introduction of vaccination certificates broke into the Office of Rospotrebnadzor.
