A large-scale protest erupted in Shenzhen early this week after the tech hub locked down three districts due to 10 new COVID-19 cases.

The Shenzhen Health Commission announced seven symptomatic and three asymptomatic cases on Sept. 26, with four cases found in Luohu District, four cases in Futian District, and two cases in Longgang District, according to Chinese state media. Futian is the seat of the Shenzhen municipal government.
