Violent COVID-19 protests rock Spain
Print Edition
POLICE in Spain made dozens of arrests during clashes with protesters on Saturday for a second consecutive night as demonstrators took to the streets to denounce new coronavirus restrictions.
In some cities, looting and vandalism broke out on the fringes of the protests.
The biggest disturbances were in Madrid where scores of demonstrators chanting “freedom!” Torched rubbish bins and set up makeshift barricades on the city’s main thoroughfare, the Gran Via.
When police moved in to clear the gathering, they were pelted with stones and flares.
Twelve people including three police officers were lightly injured in the clashes, emergency services said. Police said they arrested 32 people.
Spain last week imposed a nationwide nighttime curfew to try to halt the rise of COVID-19 infections and almost all of Spain’s regions have imposed regional border closures to prevent long-distance travel.
Despite the many restrictions imposed in Spain since July, when the number of cases began rising again, infections have spiraled.
The virus has killed more than 35,000 people in Spain and infected more than 1.1 million.
