Subscribe to Guardian News on YouTube ► Lawrence was dragged away by police shouting “Call the Consulate, now.“ Protests over Covid restrictions have spread to several cities across China and were triggered by a deadly fire at a residential high-rise building in the city of Urumqi, in the country's western Xinjiang region. Videos of the incident posted on social media led to accusations that lockdowns were a factor in the blaze that killed 10 people.
