Melbourne protests: Third day of violence planned, police say
Police have intelligence that another Melbourne protest will take place on Wednesday, Victoria Police commissioner Shane Patton said.
Despite at least 44 arrests, protesters opposing mandatory vaccination and the shutdown of Victoria’s construction sector vow to return for a third day. The state's nurses meanwhile demand they 'stop thinking only of themselves' as violence flares on a second day of unrest.
