Shanghai's residents are rebelling against draconian curbs brought in as part of the Communist regime's failing zero-Covid policy.
Chilling videos show outraged citizens in China's biggest city scuffling with hazmat-suited police who have ordered them to surrender their homes to Covid patients.
Dozens of buildings in the city have been converted to make-shift isolation hubs as local officials struggle to contain record daily infection rates, which have breached 25,000 in recent days.
Separate clips posted online seems to show police pinning angry protestors to the ground and forcibly restraining them in both Shanghai and Haining, located 125km southwest.Â
Residents stuck in Shanghai, which has been locked down since April, have flooded social media with complaints of food shortages and over-zealous officialdom which has forced them into an ineffective state quarantine.
Footage has even shown desperate citizens bursting through barricades demanding food.
Cases began rising in Shanghai in late March and have surpassed 25,000 in recent days.
The city first implemented a phased lockdown from March 28, with just parts of the city being shutdown.
A full city-wide lockdown was implemented on April 3 as cases continued to rise.
Despite the drastic action, the vast majority of virus cases detected each day are in people with no symptoms.
Shanghai, often described as China's economic engine room, has officially reported no deaths in this outbreak.
Social media has been flooded with complaints of food shortages, while protests have kicked off against the strict measures.
Videos circulating online show residents outside a compound shouting at ranks of officials holding shields labelled 'police', as the officers tried to break through their line.
In one clip, police appear to make several arrests as the residents accuse them of 'hitting people'.
The incident was triggered after authorities ordered 39 households to move from the compound 'in order to meet the needs of epidemic prevention and control' and house virus patients in their apartments, according to Zhangjiang Group, the developer of the housing complex.
In one live-streamed video, a woman reportedly asks 'why are they taking an old person away?' as officials appeared to put someone into a car.
Zhangjiang Group said it had compensated the tenants and moved them into other units in the same compound.
The developer recognised that videos of the compound that had 'appeared on the internet' on Thursday and said 'the situation had now settled down' after 'some tenants obstructed the construction' of a quarantine fence.
