More than 70 people have been arrested in Melbourne, Australia, for flouting the state's stay-at-home orders to attend an anti-lockdown protest.
About 250 people went to the illegal protest - the second one this weekend. Police said "many protestors were aggressive and threatened violence towards officers".
The demonstrations come as the state of Victoria prepares to ease its lockdown restrictions, which have been in place since early July.
Victoria has been the epicentre of Australia's Covid-19 outbreak, accounting for 75% of cases and 90% of deaths.
