Dozens Arrested as Thousands Protest Lockdown - Australia

At least 57 people were arrested and many other protesters are under investigation after scuffles with police in an anti-lockdown protest in Sydney and other cities on Saturday (24 July). Thousands of unmasked protesters marched from Sydney’s Victoria Park to Town Hall in the central business district to call for “freedom and truth”.

Travellers are advised to avoid all areas of large gatherings and civil unrest as a general safety precaution. Events intended to be peaceful can quickly escalate and become violent.
