Protests erupt in Xinjiang and Beijing after deadly fire

Public anger in China towards widening COVID-19 lockdowns across the country erupted into rare protests in China’s far western Xinjiang region and the country's capital of Beijing, as nationwide infections set another record.

Crowds took to the streets on Friday night in Xinjiang's capital of Urumqi, chanting "End the lockdown!" and pumping their fists in the air, after a deadly fire on Thursday triggered anger over their prolonged COVID-19 lockdown according to videos circulated on Chinese social media on Friday night.

In the capital of Beijing 2,700 km (1,678 miles) away, some residents under lockdown staged small-scale protests or confronted their local officials over movement restrictions placed on them, with some successfully pressuring them into lifting them ahead of a schedule.

Ish actually easy fix for CCP lah, just roll in PLA and no more anger no more protest and no more bodies. Sad

There was a time when the country asked ordinary men to do extraordinary things.

But now, they'll only do it for money.

Video got no PLA nor thanks leh....Just people singing China national anthem and demanding the lockdown be removed.

I am pleasantly surprised this is allowed in "Communist" China with no riot police around. Big Grin
