Central Kowloon faced another night of chaos on Sunday as protests in Hong Kong stretched into their 10th consecutive weekend. Hundreds of rioters barricaded the bustling Nathan Road with debris and metal barriers, bringing traffic to a standstill and halting public transport.
The disruptions echoed scenes from dystopian movies like Mad Max, with clashes between protesters and authorities escalating tensions. Buses and trams were rerouted until 10 p.m., leaving commuters scrambling for alternatives.
By late evening, services resumed, and the area returned to relative calm—but locals expressed frustration over the recurring turmoil. “It’s exhausting,” said one resident. “We just want normalcy.”
Experts warn the prolonged unrest could further strain Hong Kong’s global economic standing. Stay tuned for updates as the situation evolves.
