VOICED : Detenida en Hong Kong activista prodemocracia en aniversario de Tiananmen

For the first time in 32 years, the Tiananmen vigil in Hong Kong's Victoria Park was banned. Authorities arrested Zhou Hangtun, a pro-democracy organizer, highlighting their determination to prevent any commemoration. The vigil marks the 1989 Tiananmen Square crackdown. Despite the ban, citizens found alternative ways to remember the event, such as using phone lights. The government cited COVID-19 as a reason for the ban, despite no recent local cases, and warned that unauthorized gatherings could lead to imprisonment.
