Protesters marching peacefully hit the rain-slickened streets of Hong Kong again in multiple locations, defying police warnings that they were gathering illegally. Police said rioters tossing gasoline bombs also damaged a subway station.
Protesters with face masks walk on a road during a protest in Hong Kong, Saturday, Oct. 12, 2019. The protests that started in June over a now-shelved extradition bill have since snowballed into an anti-China campaign amid anger over what many view as Beijing's interference in Hong Kong's autonomy that was granted when the former British colony returned to Chinese rule in 1997.
The rallies in Kowloon and a small gathering of retirees outside police headquarters on Hong Kong Island maintained pressure on the city’s leader, Chief Executive Carrie Lam, to bend to the months-long protest movement’s demands ahead of her annual policy address on Wednesday. Outside police headquarters, about 200 people, many of them retirees, also gathered peacefully, some shouting abuse at plainclothes officers who did not intervene. There were gatherings of several hundred people in other locations, too. A rally in a shopping mall pulled together about 300 people who sang and put up protest posters.
The police force reported on its Facebook page that rioters tossed gasoline bombs inside a Kowloon subway station, “posing a threat to the safety of citizens” but causing no injuries.
