<p>State police charged a protester with assault after an officer suffered cuts to the head during an anti-lockdown rally in Melbourne on Saturday.</p>
<p>Police said seven other people were charged with breaching Covid-19 directions after some 200 people gathered to protest near the city centre.</p>
<p>Scuffles between demonstrators and police resulted in more than 160 fines for contravening lockdown measures or not wearing a mask.</p>

<p>“Despite all the warnings, it was disappointing to see individuals turn out to protest in the city, putting the lives of Victorians at risk,” a police statement said.</p>
<p>On Sunday, health officials said Victoria recorded 63 new cases and five more deaths. It takes the state’s total fatalities to 666 and the national death toll to 753.</p>
<p>Among other developments in the Asia-Pacific region, India recorded another record surge of 90,632 cases in 24 hours, as infections spread to smaller cities and rural areas.</p>
<p><!--Ads2--></p>
<p>According to the country’s health ministry, India’s caseload reached 4,113,811, slightly short of Brazil’s confirmed 4,123,000 infections.</p>
<p>The ministry on Sunday also reported 1,065 deaths for a total of 70,626. More than a million cases have been detected in India in less than two weeks. Authorities say India’s daily testing now exceeds one million people.</p>
<p>South Korea confirmed 167 additional cases of the coronavirus, a gradual downward trend in new infections.</p>
<p>The figures announced Sunday by the Korea Centres for Disease Control and Prevention raised the country’s tally to 21,177, with 334 deaths.</p>
<p>It was the fourth straight day the daily jump has come below 200.</p>
