HONG KONG—Many of the protesters who had barricaded themselves in a Hong Kong university this week began to leave on Nov. 15 after temporarily clearing a road they had blocked and demanding that the government commit to going ahead with local elections on Nov. 24.
It wasn’t immediately clear why the protesters at the Chinese University of Hong Kong were leaving, or where they might go next. Some remained but in much smaller numbers.
