Thousands gathered in the city of Utrecht this Saturday to protest new government measures aimed at controlling the spread of COVID-19.

Demonstrators can be seen holding signs and lighting smoke grenades in a local park, before marching through the streets.

Participant Jim Schardijn warned that 'our freedom is in danger,' regarding the requirement to show a QR code as proof of vaccination when entering various public venues.

The protest marked the first major gathering in the country against the new regulations, which include night-time curfews on all non-essential businesses.

According to the World Health Organisation, 23,142 new COVID-19 cases were recorded in the country on Friday.
