Protesters charged Hong Kong’s Legislative Council building Monday, shattering glass doors and tearing down a metal wall that is part of its façade. Monday’s action, fueled by outrage at Beijing’s attempts to put a new extradition law in place, coincides with the 22nd anniversary of Hong Kong’s handover from British to Chinese control.
“Tonight, the streets are boiling over with anger” both at Hong Kong’s government and the central leadership in Beijing, NPR’s Julie McCarthy reports.
