This man wants to demonstrate peacefully against the Chinese government's no-Covid policy with flowers, but is then arrested and taken away by the police
It's the biggest wave of protests in China for decades. Numerous people took to the streets at the weekend, and many were violently arrested by the police.
The demonstrations lasted in many cities until Monday night.
Public anger is directed at the Chinese government's drastic zero-Covid measures.
For example, this provides for daily tests, forced quarantines and repeated strict lockdowns.
In many cities, like here in Wuhan, protesters tore down Covid testing stations and street barricades.
In Shanghai, a BBC reporter was arrested by Chinese police and said he was ill-treated by police officers.
He was only released hours later.
How many people were arrested in total remains unclear.
These are the largest protests in China since the democracy movement in 1989, which the military brutally crushed.
Social media were initially full of videos of the protests, but these were immediately deleted by state censors.
The protests were triggered by an apartment fire in the metropolis of Ürümqi in north-west China on Thursday evening, which killed at least ten people.
Many expressed the suspicion that the rescue work had been hampered by the strict corona measures.
With 40,000 new infections, the Chinese Health Commission is currently reporting a peak in the number of corona in the country.
