Protesters were planning more demonstrations throughout Wednesday in areas including the Central business district across the Kowloon peninsula and in the outlying New Territories.

HONG KONG - Hong Kong prepared for more clashes on Wednesday as anti-government protesters planned to paralyse parts of the Asian financial hub for a third day, with transport, schools and many businesses closing after violence escalated across the city.

Hundreds of commuters were seen queuing at metro stations across the city early on Wednesday after some railway services were suspended and roads closed. China denies interfering and has blamed Western countries, including Britain and the United States, for stirring up trouble.
