A large demonstration over government-imposed COVID-19 restrictions and vaccination measures on Nov. 21 in Brussels, Belgium, led to about 40 arrests and several injuries as police fired water cannons and used tear gas at people throwing rocks and smoke bombs.
Police said about 35,000 people took to the streets, which started peacefully around 1 p.m. local time before some violence broke out several hours later, including the destruction of property and wounding of three police officers, local news agency VRT reported.
