“Today, after the march reached the final point of the route in the Wanchai district, some participants in the action continued to move to the Western District, blocking roads, damaging cars and walls of buildings,” said a statement released on the Hong Kong police website.
It is noted that in connection with the escalation of violence, the police will conduct an operation to remove barriers (sweep) from west to east.
Earlier it was reported that during the riots in Hong Kong, 11 police officers suffered.
