Record Turnout at Renewed Anti-Corruption Protest in Bucharest

More than 200,000 people converged on Bucharest’s Victoriei Square for another night of anti-government protests on Sunday, February 5.

Despite the government climbdown on Sunday on a controversial emergency ordinance that decriminalises some abuses of power, protesters poured into the centre of the capital for a sixth day in a row in even greater numbers. Credit: Twitter/TaraSkurtu via Storyful
