A controversial lockdown law enabling Angela Merkel s government to enforce an emergency brake has been backed by German MPs as police used pepper spray to disperse protesters outside.
Under the amended law, the government in Berlin will be able to impose an overnight curfew and shut schools wherever infection rates rise too high.
Several parties opposed the measures inside the Bundestag.
Eight thousand anti-lockdown protesters demonstrated close to parliament.
Police broke up the demonstration at the Brandenburg Gate, complaining that many of those involved had refused to heed warnings to wear face coverings and observe social distancing rules. More than 150 people were arrested for breaking Covid rules and attacking officers.
