Brussels protests: shared bikes torched, Poppy car flipped, employee attacked

During protests in Brussels, shared bikes and scooters were piled and set on fire, a Poppy car was smashed and overturned, and an employee of a shared bike company was attacked. The incident marks a significant escalation in protest tactics, with a company spokesperson noting that as many bikes were lost in one day as normally in a year. This suggests a deliberate targeting of shared mobility infrastructure, raising concerns about urban security and the impact on these services.
