10:02 am
a critical condition and that was after he was short lived round of ammunition here inside one home which is where we are now it's the eastern part of hong kong island and this is the pedestrian crossing where he was shot about 715. this morning during rush hour when commuters and people in this district are trying to get to work the police have confirmed 3 rounds of live fire were used in that incident and as i mentioned at that particular a protester is still in hospital now this what the name of today by the protests is what a general strike in that general strike was targeting the transport system though looking at road and rail network so trying to basically disrupt there and i have here in one area this whole area has been paralyzed for all of today but this is just this is just one spot we know of another lot of other areas in hong kong island central hong kong where tear gas has been fired the networks have been damaged 20 empty that's the train system here in hong kong 20 train stations have been closed major highways have been blocked and as you can see behind me we still

have right place and police deployed across the entire of hong kong trying to clear those blockades that have been set up by those protesters and i can also confirm that university classes have been suspended at a number of different universities and a number of different campuses other schools have also canceled their classes and children have been sent home as a result of today monday's general strike and what we've seen today that particular protest are being shot by a live round of ammunition by police. and sir are you getting the sense that both sides the riot police and the per the right police on one end of the protesters on the other both are escalating the tension in the aggression. yes by all means and we've heard no huge crowds gather back here at san juan home and in other spots across hong kong and these crowds they're building their own because they're just the public not just protesters and they've been hurling abuse at the police and the accusations have been growing from the protesters and the
10:04 am
public that they believe the police are using excessive force as these protests go on and we now as we've mentioned earlier in the 24th week of the 5th month of anti-government demonstrations here in hong kong. and the abuses coming from both sides of the tensions have frayed from both sides we also had a 22 year old student who died on friday from a brain injury he suffered a cardiac arrest and this brain injury he suffered was incurred during a protest earlier in the week that also escalated the anger certainly from the public and the protest movement but certainly today monday escalation of the use of live ammunition on a protester has certainly made the tensions high here in hong kong all right so sara clark thank you for that update from hong kong. lott america's longest serving leader has resigned following protests against his reelection in bolivia but he isn't going quietly just hours after every merola's announced he was stepping down he accused police official ng and illegal warrant for his arrest bolivia's police
