Scenes of protest from China, which has seen unprecedented demonstrations against Covid restrictions.
Away from Beijing and Shanghai, the authorities have also faced angry protests linked to Covid restrictions.There were violent clashes last week at the world's largest iPhone factory, in Zhengzhou, Henan province, where more than 200,000 workers had been under lockdown since October.
Hundreds of workers marched over the enforced lockdown and claims of overdue pay. The company, Foxconn, later apologised for a "technical error" in its payment systems. But the city of Zhengzhou itself, with a population of around six million, has since gone into lockdown, with authorities saying people would not be able to leave the area unless they had a negative Covid test.
There have also been protests in Wuhan - where Covid-19 first emerged. Video posted on social media shows people pushing down a fence that had been erected as part of Covid measures.在武汉汉正街,居民合力把小区的巨型铁闸推翻,走到街上跟其他小区居民汇合。
