Riot police clashed with anti-lockdown and anti-vaccine protesters in central London on Saturday.

Officers said that the arrests had been made for different offences including breaching coronavirus restrictions.

Police lined up in a number of streets in central London's West End shopping district.

Anti-lockdown protesters were joined by groups who oppose the COVID-19 vaccine, and they marched through the city.

One police officer estimated the protesters numbered between 300 and 400.

England's current national lockdown ends on Dec. 2.
