Leipzig / Plauen (dpa) - Critics of the Corona measures gathered on Saturday morning in several places in Saxony and Saxony-Anhalt for car parades.

The destination is the city of Leipzig, where several counter-demonstrations have been announced.

The police have prepared for a large-scale operation in the Saxon metropolis.

In Limbach-Oberfrohna (Zwickau district), around 100 people came together in the morning, as the Zwickau police department informed.

In contrast, a parade that was supposed to start in Plauen was canceled by the organizer for personal reasons.

For this purpose, the assembly authority had been advised around 200 participants.

The first drivers also met in Dresden - the parade was supposed to start there at noon.

Three motorcades from Saxony-Anhalt wanted to make their way to Leipzig - according to information from the local situation center, around 300 vehicles were registered - including from Naumburg.
