Shanghai residents heard screaming from windows as COVID lockdown continuesBy Anthony Blair, The Sun

Disturbing footage captures the moment ordinary citizens in Shanghai appear to start screaming out of their windows, after being forbidden from leaving their houses for over a week.
The world’s third-biggest city has been under total COVID lockdown since April 5, with food supplies said to be running low as China’s government struggles to cope.
Video originally shared on Chinese social media shows the Shanghai night skyline, with dozens of high-rise apartment blocks visible.
In the background, dozens of screaming voices, seemingly from a number of different locations, can be heard spontaneously.
What appears to be a searchlight is being shone out of one of the apartment buildings.
The clip is just the latest disturbing video to emerge from Shanghai, where 26 million people have been forbidden from leaving their houses for five days.
On Saturday, starving shoppers were filmed looting a supermarket after only being granted paltry government food rations.
Other footage includes the sound of people screaming for food and medical supplies.
