HONG KONG - The city is bracing itself on Monday for a day of multiple non-cooperative actions from angry anti-extradition protesters, who will be disrupting morning train services and holding rallies in seven locations amid calls for a territorywide strike.
Messages circulating via Telegram chat called on protesters to start the day at 7.30am with non-cooperative actions at Kwun Tong line Diamond Hill station in Kowloon, Tsuen Wan line Lai King station in Kwai Chung, and Island line Fortress Hill station. "Such acts have already gone far beyond the limits of peaceful and rational protests for which the government and general public will not condone under any circumstances. Otherwise they will push Hong Kong into a very dangerous situation," it warned.
The warning comes after a night of protests and acts of vandalism sprung up across the territory on Sunday. They later moved to Kennedy Town and Sai Ying Pun in western Hong Kong island where they faced-off with the riot police who fired tear gas to disperse the crowd. Sai Ying Pun district, where street battles took place the two previous weekends, is where Beijing's liaison office in the city and the Western Police Station were located.
