you can hear the protesters or rather the police clearing the barriers that the protesters had put to try and stop the place from coming in. the protesters from what i can see level. so moved back a bit they've gone close. to the ledge co building so in a sense what the place achieving here is they are moving the protesters into an even more enclosed space they were already in quite an enclosed space but they had created for themselves the protesters by putting barricades up. on the roads that lead to the ledge close the legislative council the parliament here in hong kong that buildings they had essentially encircled themselves the protesters in barricades in order to stop the place coming in but with a place and now doing is taking advantage of the fact that all the protesters are in the same so called area and they're coming in from all those approaches and they're moving the barricades and we're approaching i'm going to keep approaching the back of one of those barricades here now as we get closer though on the 2nd the road that as we get closer i can feel more and more and more a

they want a peaceful protest. the feeling at the front here among what i can describe as a predominately young crowd who seem prepared, the man next to me probably a journalist with a gas mask, but further back they've got hard hats on. the crowd here prepared for some sort of trouble with the police. definitely by trying to crack through these windows here, they're potentially going to precipitate that upon themselves. anna? >> yeah, it's quite incredible that those police are just standing on the other side waiting for those -- for those protesters to pierce that glass. and, nic, i can tell you there are some 400, at least 400 police with their shields, with their batons and their helmets who are staged, they're assembled just 100 meters from where we are who are prepared to obviously come and join those other riot police and probably corral those protesters where you are. but, nic, please stay with us. we are monitoring this situation very closely. don't go anywhere. we'll be right back after the break. can't s

try to protest. you know and also hong kong. and he is as we heard there and no one mentioning that extradition bill anymore instead of talking about safety and violence has the focus of these protests shifted. yes it has you will still you have people talking about the extradition bill the problem is not over yet but this. disbelief these clashes and this police violence that has been perceived as exposed excessive has led to his his trace in society not the tactics of the police and the attitude of the government are much bigger issues because the government has not replied to the demands of the of society that has basically not been seen almost at all during these weeks and. an evaluation of hong kong's all of these actions during this time and police actions is one of the main demands and underlying is of course the relationship that hong kong people have with their government their feeling of being powerless against the government that listens only to what beijing said is and the government of course doesn't like the look o

troops to the protests and they all went well but then in the 2nd week of the protest the police start to use a very aggressive approach to dispose of protestors and many people saying that this is unnecessary violence and so the trust between the protesters to the police relieved them a shot and now you can see the protesters are always tearing up and they always wear helmets and face mask to protect themselves because they think that it's almost certain that the police force them to be disperse them at the end of the protest this started as a protest against a controversial extradition bill that bill has since been shelved but people still come out every weekend why yes so the feel has been shelved but then the people are actually asking for it to be totally destroyed so. there is still one of the reason that people are still out on the street every week 10 but the focus of the protests also shift very lashley to the police brutality that we were talking about and they actually saying that the government should have an independent investigation to worse is police and to us what happe

protesters trying to achieve here. well i think the most notable thing for me today rebecca was just how much of a mix there were was of protesters out on the street really young and old and people were really showing despite all the arrests how how strongly they felt about this issue of the upcoming elections they were chanting for a city in the city's mayor to resign they were chanting this is our city they were chanting all for one and one for all which is kind of become the rallying cry of this movement of this movement which is really united the opposition here in russia russia which is usually very divided but they also told me that this is really about much much more than moscow they said that everyone in the whole country is looking to moscow now and they need to show that russians are prepared to fight for their democratic rights and just give us a sense of what how much support the opposition has in russia. well that's always really hard to say rebecca what i can tell you is that support for the ruling united

because they want to protest l.c.d. t.v. people in towns have the same rights in most parts of the world i mean we all know that there are still countries where you could be punished with death penalty i'm your guy alaskan or transsexual so that's definitely still just political points to this principle so it's a marina strauss in central poland thanks very much for the update. i have to cycling now agan banal is said to win this year's 2 it affronts after he held on to his late through the penultimate stage the colombian held off his closest competitors on the steep climb up to torrens as italian been chan's on a volley when the stage that means burn out simply has to cross the finish line at the same paris on sunday as the final stage of the race is only ceremonial. you're watching news up next a technology show shift today that amy talking about and while it's not asking just how secure are my ball payments it systems really is i'm rebecca it is in that and thanks for. storing people over information providing. the m

they fired tear gas at protesters. monday was the anniversary of hong kong's hand of a chinese rule, these demonstrations take place every year but never before like this. nick beake was watching this all unfold outside the building. he isjoining us live from hong kong. tell us more about what you are please. they are outside the building now, we have been into the main chamberand saw building now, we have been into the main chamber and saw the destruction ready and that debris that was left behind, the parties have been asking people to come down to this point, and you can see some of the graffiti behind us, this smashed glass as far as that eye can see and this gives you an indication of how these protesters were able to make their way indoors and they were able to occu py way indoors and they were able to occupy this building and in an incredible fashion and they were able to do that because the police did not stop them. you can the sum up did not stop them. you can the sum up his is now taking off their riot gearan

do you expect protests all clashes to be more frequent. protests like calling he'll on every way and now is not only related to urging the government to terminate a bit the bill now it's the summer off this content to beijing and hong kong government last week we experienced poll beijing gangs and most ordinary citizen yesterday we experienced poll riot police beaten on peaceful protest or inside railway station know what the probation gangs of all is fostering the interest of beijing they are just. hoping to silence the voice of hong kong people what do you think can be the outcome of this protest movement calls for democracy will never stop we will continue our fight lead of hall should not be appointed by beijing need of hong kong should be elected by hollande people. josh along are saying calls for democracy will never stop to say hong kong authorities and ultimately beijing giving into protesters demands. well protesters are not demanding at the moment democracy this is of course the ultimate goal and this is the underlying course tha

the holy protest has changed and how strange from a single issue a protest about thanks bill that was this. it's basically a protest that is mostly about police brutality it's about it's about perceived police brutality about the actions of the police about the relationship between the government and the protesters and all the population of hong kong people are going to. be on happy with what was be happening in the last week sit down happy with the with the police response how. do you want an investigation police action and i can smell the sickness and think i will leave you i mean she is deaf and get to a safe location where you are right thank you for that report in hong kong as those protests start to escalate a tear gas being fired at protesters there now i want to mention mathias has been speaking with protesters on the ground he actually was able to catch up with one of the leaders. and here's what he told me don't. let the protests get them from police or not polish the you would use pepper spray and rubber bullets and tear gas fire on activists that's why protest get up throu

and the protesters are very defiant of authority the band today they still came out and protest yesterday there were demonstrations at hong kong airport do we know what might come next we are going to see more demonstrations some have already been unknowns tomorrow there's probably going to be one next week and the weekend after as well people here have the feeling that this might be the end game about hong kong and this distrust against the government amongst these protesters a big part of the population is so big that people have the feeling that retreating no which is to leave the ground for beijing to do what it wants and that's why we are seeing this defines although i don't think many of them have the hope that they can change things for better it's just resistance against a perceived deterioration of the governance of the city. in hong kong thank you very much to moscow now were hundreds of people have been arrested as they attempted to rally outside the mayor's office demanding free and fair local elections this comes after a raft of opposition and independent candidates were barr

protests.n in the last couple of hours and also set by the police that unless the protesters move, they will move against them and that's what we have seen in the last while, both on the streets outside the legislative building and inside the legislative building and inside the main chamber. we saw only two hours ago hundreds of protesters inside the main chamber having burst through and broken in. i want to show you the pictures from a couple of hours ago what the protesters moved in, they were using metal bars, metal barriers, these are the pictures from earlier inside the legislative council building, they ended up, and hundreds of them poured through once the initial break in had been done. in they went and four hours they were inside that main chamber room and these are the pictures. using social media, they we re pictures. using social media, they were broadcasting, making more of their demands. then we had at that tweet from hong kong's police saying they would move unless the protesters

are running telling the protesters to get out now as well so even the protests now saying that enough is enough and we should leave i'm going but my earpiece back in now if you have another question because yeah. sure as you were saying and you police slowly moving through and as we're talking to you we are seeing a little a we're looking at the reuters live shots of the police are not getting anything we can bring that up right now these are the police buses that were moving a little bit earlier presumably part of that police operation to slowly clear all of the protesters from that area i'm not sure if and you can still. i understand you can't hear me at the moment but just to bring you up to date on what's been unfolding here this police operation began almost an hour ago hong kong police firing tear gas initially to try and disperse the hundreds of protesters there some of whom had a couple of hours earlier stormed the legislature foreseen a their way in smashing through the doors and the windows and occupying the inside of the building and door being we saw a door being graffiti

actually all these protests in the past 2 weeks and also the protests today there were no really is clearly this all these young people mostly on the streets because they come in a case on social media they use telegram to organize everything they organize this applies and they organize the time and the location they will go to they also go to online platform to talk about these and there hasn't been really someone coming out to have a clear choice for everyone so it's really a leaderless. action if this were going to be difficult for the hong kong government to come back and negotiate with anyone and. actually some pro-democracy legislators they always then between the protesters and uncle government or the police to negotiate they always try to calm down the protesters as well so so far they have been the only means of communication between the 2 groups there were demonstrations earlier today before the parliament building stores those demonstrations were peaceful why do you think it changed actually it didn't really change so these 2 groups of protesters they were not doing things togeth

try to protest. you know and also hong kong. but here as we are there no one is mentioning that extradition bill anymore and stand there talking about safety and violence has the focus of these protests shifted. well some people still do mention the extradition bill from time to time but it's true you do not see these these slogans against the extradition bill that much anymore people are still angry that the government has shelved this bill but not with drawn but now they're focusing more on what has happened in the last few weeks because many people see this police brutality what they perceive as excessive police brutality. as a symbol of how hong kong is governed and how their voices are heard so this is about the relationship between the hong kong government that is a government at the will of beijing and the hong kong people and the police is in the middle of that the police have become a symbol of the violence that people perceive their government the violent attitude it has to them this movement started out peaceful we ar

with the pro democracy protests. there's a live picture from hong kong we're joined in the studios by my colleague. from the territory. sherry let's get your initial reaction to the pictures just. really shocking to see all these speeches expression because you can see the protests. there probably just secondary school and they were just prepared for it so. yeah now we can see that they were. they stormed the parliament and confronting the police yeah so this is the i think you said this is the seats where this is the center of the legislative area and yet this is a very easy every home call. carried out here and also many. things here and this is all very important role when. hundreds of thousands of students all 17 days this iconic row right now we're seeing the police moving a police. van so where are they where are they appear to be headed. probably the police is just going to tie the purse protesters were left there but. in most of these cases these protesters who were left with. them just lay there just because

is anti-government protest is expressing their right to assembly. this is a really generic question but describe the mood for me there because when the cameras came in earlier it just seemed absolutely chaotic the spray painting in the graffiti and all of this now now just the seems to just be sort of gentle hum behind you almost like this for the night settling in for the long haul. yes it does seem that way exactly things do appear to have calm down you're right it was very chaotic particularly as the protest has made their entrance through those broken doors and windows and then into the legislative council building itself it's been here for the moment still a lot of people milling around in the lower levels of the building and thousands of people outside as well still you may be seeing some live pictures of that throughout the last few hours even out there though there's a lot of people sitting down just milling around now and now that this building is being breached and there is no sign of any police in the vicinity a lot of people just taking

they have been protesting peacefully, the biggest protesting peacefully, the biggest protest in hongter said we have protested peacefully, we protested, 25% of hong kong cosmic population, still the government does not listen to us, carrie lam is ignoring our demands, and i think tonight we saw this explosion of anger and frustration amongst especially the young people of hong kong who are saying you need to listen to us and we will go to this level of violence to make you listen. but it will be interesting to see, as nick said, how the wider population in hong kong is going to view this because hong kong has been called the city of protest. it has always been very proud to wear peaceful protest, and to see young people and demonstrators break into the parliament is really unprecedented. looking at the level of graffiti and destruction that has been going on in their is going to surprise i think a lot of people in hong kong. we heard the message there, more oil, more oil, let's push this through. they have other slogans that help us think what they are thinking. one of the other slog

and the protesters marching anyway this is the mixture that makes tensions rise during these days in hong kong we've seen 3 straight weekends of clashes between the police and protesters and i've talked to some of the protesters they were saying that they were still hoping that today might be peaceful but they had little hope that this might be possible protesters of course blame this and tiredly on the police but we see anxiety intentions on both sides right he's. now police are being criticized for a bloody crackdown yesterday on protesters in the exact same train station where armed thugs attacked protesters last week do you think in the end of this weekend will be seen as a turning point in these demonstrations. i think the turning point has already happened 6 weeks ago when the police 1st used massive amounts of tear gas and rubber rubber bullets against the protesters this was something at the time that had never happened in in hong kong police had never used this amount of violence to disperse protests and since then. the situation has been hardening and the police tactics hav

why was there not the containment of protesters, why we re the containment of protesters, why were they shepherded away from the building? i think it will be interesting to see what the wider hong kong public think of this. so many people here today were teenagers, in their early 20s, and they were carrying out this action at the same time that older hong kong citizens, people with families, we re kong citizens, people with families, were marching through the city as they always do on the ist ofjuly to show their displeasure with beijing. will they be completely put off, repulsed by what they have seen, or will they if not overtly endorsing the action here think actually these are desperate times for hong kong and they support the sentiment? i think it will be fascinating in the coming weeks. thank you very much. i should point out the pictures we have been just been showing which suggested a confrontation might be in the offing, those of the pictures prior to the assembly being cleared out itself. these are the live pictures now. there is a certain amount of daybreak around, obviously,

to let protesters make collective decisions. compared to his own experience ne umbrella movement as the new tactics can attract supporters beyond hong kong's traditional activist scene. this movement hasn't succeeded yet because top leaders of the government still reject our demands we learn from the failure of the movement and developed new strategies to pressure the authorities we will continue to fight until all our goals are achieved. many young protestors like to believe that by expanding beyond conventional rallies a multi-pronged approach is harder to defeat and even has a chance of bringing the change they desire. and i'm told now that we can go live to hong kong where our correspondent phebe kong is standing by for a favor. if you are with this tell us what's happening on the streets of hong kong right now. i know my house. i. bought my house up. last night it. right. here. i. feel. right. now ha ha ha ha. ha ha ha ha. yeah. oh. yes this is fight to stop. backing out of my day with. something oh it's not. like if. they.

protests. protesters move, they will move against them and that's what we have seen in the last while, both on the streets outside the legislative building and inside the legislative building and inside the main chamber. we saw only two hours ago hundreds of protesters inside the main chamber having burst through and broken in. i want to show you the pictures from a couple of hours

the requests of the protesters and they will probably take a very tough stance against these protesters they will probably say that. there has also been rumors. my in the n.c.a.a. and hong kong to stop these protests if if it doesn't stop so very tense situation there in hong kong. for us thank you very much. so let's now take a look at some of the other stories making news around the world russia is facing international criticism after police arrest that nearly 1400 people at an unauthorized rally on saturday they were protesting against opposition candidates being barred from local elections you call the moscow to respect its own constitutional and. meanwhile opposition leader saying of all he has been taken to hospital after apparently suffering an allergic reaction while in custody. at least 2 people have been killed in an attack coinciding with the 1st day of election campaigning in afghanistan gunman stormed the offices of incumbent president musharraf gone his running mate after the detonation of a large car bomb it's unclear who was behind the attack. an attack by boko haram mil

of the protesters and they will probably take a fairly tough stance against these protesters they will probably save. them a stray sions and. there has also been rumors china my in the end sent me to hong kong to stop these protests if if it doesn't stop by and so very tense situation there in hong kong. for us thank you very much. let's now take a look at some of the other stories making news around the world russia is facing international criticism after police arrested nearly 1400 people at an unauthorized rally on saturday they were protesting against opposition candidates being barred from local elections that called on moscow to respect its own constitutional and. meanwhile opposition leader alex in a balmy has been taken to hospital after apparently suffering an allergic reaction while in custody. on mars foreign minister has held talks with representatives in a refugee camp in neighboring bangladesh both sides were discussing conditions for the muslim minorities save repatriation to me on more including possible housing and citizenship for the rohingya about 700000 of them fled

this protest today that has not been allowed by the police is. being cracked down upon and it is we're looking at live pictures there of the front lines of police and protesters standing off let's talk about the police they were criticized for being slow to stop those armed attacks now today we're seeing them using tear gas what can you tell us about the relationship between police and these protesters. police has always had a very good reputation but during these 78 weeks since these these protests started the police has lost their reputation within a big part of society police have been criticized from the beginning as being unnecessary brutal unnecessarily brutal firing tear gas firing rubber bullets as has happened at some of the demonstrations processes is seen as unacceptable by most people most people blame the police the violence on the police rather than on the protesters and there this this there's a word that goes around at these demonstration now it's black police police the police are compared to thugs in the eyes of the protesters a

this is the place where thousands of protesters today took siege, putting up protesters today took siegeraffiti on the wall. they were here, trying to break into different entrances. let's see if we can take you inside. let's go through here, danny. this is a government building, normally it would be a highly secure area. it's been com pletely highly secure area. it's been completely trust. for instance, there, the whole place has been ripped apart —— trashed. if we go into one of these other entrances, this is where politicians, people who make the decisions in this city would be coming to work every day. and if wejust would be coming to work every day. and if we just take you inside, this is where some of the processes went through. —— protesters, the smell is still in the air, that is probably the teargas that was fired. come forward , the teargas that was fired. come forward, these are other members of the media having the same idea as us, trying to get through, just listening to the police. you can imagine at some point they will be making their way inside here. more graffiti, daube

because hong kong is known as the city of protest, it's the city of peaceful protests.eople to storm the centre of hong kong and hong kong's parliament, you might start to see this deemed a mistake by some people. we are seeing some divisions within the opposition camp you are saying that support which has initially been up behind these protesters might be turned away because of the level of violence that we've seen today. and it will be interesting to see if that happens. i guess it's difficult to judge because people are unlikely to say out loud that they support violence, even if perhaps behind closed doors, they do. it's difficult to gauge. of course. let's bring in carrie adam who helps us with the coverage in chinese media. if you're watching, it will switch over to english and we will listen in. will it be broadcast anywhere in china? not at all, no. with mainland china, you always have a delete and the stories, and the communist party will decide its own take on these events. so they will be waiting a day, that normally happens, in order toissue day, that normal

so unclear that how many protesters had actually and the feuding and somewhere. there was a few of them the antenna building and then later all. * these are failing again and they were unclear right now but obviously most healthy but the majority also have to do outside of puting. all of them have the same thing amount which is not only bodies it's all they do and i. think we and i specially because there are the younger you call it has have come easy to we. have the same the mouth that the pros have before that so these are all pretty take the anger and outrage. and see just briefly if you can amid all of this outrage over terri lamb it's time that we can pressure the government needs to listen more to the people what we see actually change. on terrorism have to show up this morning out to. the house i disappear for nearly 2 weeks. controversial i say somebody'll. give me crazy it's all just to have an outline all they can touch with. me on the off at the mouth about it goes past. oh it's a shit they are not expanding till and also to precisely daily say that it

on the weekend after there are some protests scheduled the protests have started to. show up in different parts of the city in the beginning it was all in central from where you have legislative council the government the political and the economy the economic center of kong now they're spreading to the neighborhoods and i think we are going to see a lot more of these neighborhood protests in the next few weeks but yes in hong kong for us and yang long where those protests taking place again. gang attacks last week thank you very much for that report. let's check in now on some of the other stories making news around the world indian navy helicopters and emergency service boats have rescued some 700 people from a train that was stranded in flood waters near mumbai tarantula monsoon rains left the tracks submerged and the train partially under water as well officials said a relief train would take passengers to their destination. tunisians gathered outside the presidential palace in carthage for the funeral of their late president . as the country's 1st head of state t

what the protesters want though they all as one working together look.demands if you like that they just put up on the screen are what they were asking for and they were they were also right that a sense going further and they were saying these are symbolic things that we want to achieve at this stage but this movement has got lex's governments remember in hong kong what 5 years ago now the slowdown brotherhood you know which cool but much rooted democratic on kong and the months of sitting around st central area of hong kong that frankly didn't achieve very much especially they ended up this late now it's what the protest is now feel is that they have to start with a state some of them publicly they have achieved something these extradition proposals are going full steam ahead and now that be taken off the table and to the honest it's almost a matter of semantics this difference between those proposals expiring as carrot and says they will happen next time in about a year from now and they formally woman in all honesty that kind of could amount to the s

but we have seen more protests, more dissatisfaction.disposable incomes of the population have fallen by no less than 13% in the last five years. so people are getting tired of the regime, and putin looks increasingly bored and tired. sometime, something will happen. but we don't know when. suddenly a build—up of —— certainly a build—up of pressure there. thank you for your time. hong kong has been engulfed by huge anti—government protests for nearly eight weeks now, and it is still unclear how china will react to the increasingly violent demonstrations. in the latest confrontation, police fired tear gas at an unauthorised protest held by tens of thousands of people to condemn an attack by armed masked men last week. nick beake reports from hong kong. tear gas, rubber bullets, and anger fill the stifling summer air. welcome to another weekend in hong kong. this is now the rhythm of life. you find a police force trying to contain an eighth consecutive week of demonstrations. and these are the protesters who won't back down — tens of thous

some belief that muslims should protest after each attack but many muslims believe these would falsely associate their return with the attackers. explain this experience is a special kind of community in the aftermath from that fact but that unity vanishes and is soon replaced by division discrimination hatred and fear. on the. number of the really shouldn't. be the economists who months have gone the not. for the chemist i make it but i'm going to conclude that at least they think of it as me as if you just outlaw. the little bits in the knowing the number of. kids in those meals noise those meals immuno in the north it's about the i mean it can be really put us here in studio and we will move out of my home. not a lot about this really. comes here. more. than a motion you know. there's a not set up of the month since i'll move more than back to normal now and that was excessive i mean not normal twenties or parts of them all and then caucus a little bit before i get. them i was at the annual moving moment at which. we focus on that and that was exciting but you too. are most in need

to continue organizing these protests i actually i was in khartoum in the protest in early 2011 and there was a crackdown then and actually young activists started mobilizing basically with small cells and cell groups because the because they realized the regime was using the electronic communications basically against them to to tap in and infiltrate their networks so there's a so it did force them to go underground and change their tactics but i think you know the proof is in the putting these are these protests yesterday's were huge they were across the country and it's shown that this uprising even if you cut off the internet is going to continue because it has that large of a broad base of support among the sudanese people i think it's really important to recognize that the military council. you know their power can be overstated and i think often has been overstated by by many who just assume that they can just crack down on everyone and continue ruling that way you know they have a very limited political constituency especially in khartoum in some ways they're their largest but a c

prominent figure and he voices out protesters. concerns and. views towards the international press and let's hear what he had to say though at a protest get him from police or not polish deal would use pepper spray and rubber bullets and tear gas fire on activists that's why protest get approval from police force or not is not meant to end in more protests might continue. do you expect protests all clashes to be more frequent. protests like continue on everywhere and now is not only related to urging the government to terminate a bit the bill now it's the summer off this content to beijing and hong kong government last week we experienced poll beijing gangs and most ordinary citizen yesterday we experienced riot police beaten on peaceful protest or inside railway station know where the probation gangs of all is for serving the interest of beijing they are just. hoping to silence the voices of hong kong people what do you think can be the outcome of this protest movement calls for democracy will never stop we will continue our figh

there have been massive protests. you've joined those protests.han the governor standing down? really that's just the short term. people are focused on that, they're focussed on having him resign and, after that, everyone that is or has been involved in these wide corruption schemes needs to be ousted. there needs to be a wide—swept investigation at all levels of the government and corruption needs to be nipped in the bud. stay with us on bbc news, still to come: fifty years after man stepped foot on the moon — where could the technology of today take us? mission control: you can see them coming down the ladder now. it's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind. a catastrophic engine fire is being blamed tonight for the first crash in the 30 year history of concorde, the world's only supersonic airliner. it was one of the most vivid symbols of the violence and hatred that tore apart the state of yugoslavia. but now, a decade later, it's been painstakingly rebuilt and opens again today. there's been a 50% decrease in sperm quantity and an

to here in the day someone who spoke about the protest movement who is part of the protest movement but was stressing to us early today that she felt particularly the young people needed to think about the actions that they were going to take and to try to remain calm probably not the situation that we're looking at right now have a listen to her family. i feel sad and this. and also allow but last some people say that some of those people are actually people who took part in a demonstration in support of the police yesterday so they went to try to provoke but also maybe their protest this young people who feel very disillusioned feel very emotional and believe that well we are not so many twice and still nothing happened but i would urge them to come. i have march many times in my life and on and things of that cold but i we have spent and this way now as syria and yemen as many other places the thing is in hong kong we have no democracy but then 3 governors and personal safety and the rule of no that we enjoy all life is much more than some democratic country that's the irony and

this july 1st, you see riot police coming in thousands of protesters broke into the legislature, protesting china's douminion over hong kon. they're asking top officials to step down and are continuing to protest an extradition law that would have allowed china to extradite hong kong residents to china if convicted of a crime, so they would be tried in china and not hong kong. riot police had stayed out of the situation up until now so as you look at these live pictures from hong kong, that's the central part of hong kong by the legislature. and riot police have been moving in we haven't seen them fire tear gas quite yet. the expectation is that they are going to try and keep their response as low as possible. but this is the first time that we have seen live pictures of riot police moving into that particular part of hong kong and thousands of people were in the streets earlier. we continue to follow this very fluid situation in hong kong right now as the anniversary, the july 1st anniversary officially passes. but as you can see, the protesters are not going back and they are not backing

protests. also on the program. for the 1st time its foreign minister to classic his country has exceeded. the list fails for great who forget that despite talking through discussions over the post of the commission president. i'm still welcome to the program. protests as a broken into hell calls legislature on the anniversary of the territories returned to chinese rule all counts government has accused them of deploying extreme violence and police have threatened to clear the building using what they call appropriate force but demonstrators a steadfast in their anger over plans legislation that would allow extraditions to china 22 years ago today britain returned to control the former colony to mainland china under a deal that would ensure democratic rights for the city's people but many now feel those rights of being rolled back. weeks of anger explode into destructive of violence the group of protesters smashed their way into the legislative council building the center of hong kong's government the. only way. i a

yeah right you know all of the protests have left the legislative. complex booting so all just on the street gathering around the center hole is an area i'll call and as i can see by the these legislative sometime soon there's not many *. protesters saying here to so maybe they're moving. 7 better away because we can see that all the a c. there's a numerous a riot police gathering he is so maybe there now and i'm moving to other places in central to set up.

unpredictable protesters -- a billion narrative that the protesters themselves are gonna take issue with but there will be questions obviously about why the police after many hours the one part that is absolutely has been consistent. after many hours standing guard in sight that legislative -- council building -- all of a sudden at a certain point they were nowhere to be seen they retreated -- what has the protesters began to swarm in and to storm the building and and its offices in to occupy -- the that that central legislative chamber -- only to return hours later and warned that we will use force if you don't get the premises and ultimately those promises being cleared -- in the absence of a of a of violence and and use of force in the end. having with tear gas initially being use but there w were sevel hours in which and we've been reporting it you know mark throughout the day today in which the police the hong kong police were nowhere to be seen and when they did re emerge they came from. multiple directions but many of them came out of that the closest police headquarters which is

can see at the tension between the police and the protesters history to rise saying now the protests us almost into police as the enemy so you can see that the police is using way more false and for example. and rubber bullets is like unarmed like now in every demonstration in hong kong and but on the protests aside you also see they're hearing out they've become more defensive and sometimes they would even throw things at the police just the things that they pick up on the ground and sometimes they would even pick up kick ass as fired by the police and throw them back at the police so you can when they see that the commentator and this is getting ready a press in here ramping up quite a bit so one of the key figures joshua wong one of the protest key figures told me today that the calls for them. prosy will never stop what exactly is the movement's end game here so we can see that now the protests is way more than just of the extradition now they have the protesters have way more demands for example they want the resignation of the chief executive kerry they also want an independent

similar scenes are reported from other parts of the city so the protesters are now trying to block as many strategic points in the city as possible sounds like they're starting to barricade themselves in i mean are we expecting then this to be another long night in hong kong. yes we are expecting that we have been expecting this from the beginning because at the moment the police did not approve the march their chances for a peaceful march were already gone because the protesters are not deep to deterred by police than the police. you cannot just ban these these marches easily so but at the moment that is not approved they can interfere very easily they will interfere quickly and we've seen this in the past weeks the police is much quicker now to disperse protesters using amounts of tear gas and rubber bullets. a few weeks before last night's protest was also on authorized police are being criticized for their bloody crackdown in reaction to that protest you've been speaking with activists today and let's hear their reaction to the way that authorities have been responding to these pr
