Corona: Vaccination opponents attack politician cars - the most recent incident only took place on Tuesday in Saxony

It was not the first time that opponents of measures against the corona pandemic aggressively disrupted the departure of politicians.

On Tuesday evening, the police in Freiberg, Saxony, had to push back people who were blocking a street after a panel discussion with Prime Minister Michael Kretschmer (CDU).

They pushed back a police chain, whereby a car from the column of the head of government drove over the foot of an officer.

The meeting in Mössingen was apparently not registered.
