MADRID — Supporters of Spain’s far-right Vox party have staged protests by car across Spain against restrictions introduced to help stem the spread of COVID-19.
The protests Monday coincided with the Fiesta Nacional de España and aimed to “turn our National Day into a cry for freedom.”
Scores of cars jammed traffic in Madrid on the Paseo de la Castellana, one of the capital’s main roads. Protesters, wearing face masks, honked horns and waved Spanish flags out of their car windows.
Vox has lawmakers in the Spanish and European parliaments, as well as many town councillors across Spain.
Spain has officially recorded more than 861,000 COVID-19 cases and has attributed almost 33,000 deaths to the new coronavirus, making it one of Europe’s worst-hit countries.
