10:10 pm
and let's not forget. behind all the occupation and the arrests and the scuffles we've seen and the breakouts of violence is a very political message. and so the protest leaders say that they want their political message to be heard but, of course the governments of hong kong and the chinese government have simply stuck this out and now they're meeting this with a legal response. they're saying look you're here illegally. we're going to lock this place down and clear you out. >> just the beginning according to protesters. reporting there live from hong kong. many thanks to you. >> a palestinian minister is dead after a confrontation with israeli troops. israel is investigating, but a doctor says he knows exactly how the minister tied. that's next.
