Analysts at Japanese firm Nomura on Monday calculated that 53 cities – home to nearly a third of China’s population – still had some restrictions in place.

“Your power is given to you by students, not by yourselves,” one person can be heard shouting in the footage. “Serve the students!” The Nanjing Tech student told AFP that her peers were unhappy about poor communication from the university and worried they would be blocked from travelling home for the winter holidays.

The Nanjing protest comes days after people took to the streets in multiple Chinese cities urging an end to the zero-Covid policy, with some even calling for Chinese President Xi Jinping to step down.
