protesters”
Thousands of people took to
the streets yesterday to mark
the fifth anniversary of
China’s government banning
ful democratic elections in
Hong Kong. Protesters lit
fires, threw petrol bombs and
attacked the parliament
building.
Hong Kong has seen
13 successive weeks of
protests. The movement grew
out of rallies against
controversial extradition bill
now suspended. It has since
become a broader
pro- democracy movement.
