Hong Kong police fired tear gas on the night of Aug. 3 in confrontations with black-clad activists in the city’s Kowloon area, as the Chinese-controlled territory was again rocked by anti-government protests.
Police kept out of sight during an afternoon that saw tens of thousands of protesters march through what is ordinarily a busy shopping district, but charged onto the streets after 9 p.m. local time, with hundreds of officers in riot gear pushing crowds back.
