The government responded to the first massive protests, by saying The Bill would be withdrawn, but the protests had escalated.

The protesters want to be their "five demands" met, the full democracy for Hong Kong , and an investigation into what they say has been excessive use of force by The Police .

What is the latest on the protests?

protests have taken place every weekend since June and happens in every district of the region, causing widespread disruption.

More Than 2,300 people have been arrested since the Civil Disobedience began.

On Sunday , several parts of the city saw rallies, and in the afternoon at least 27 stations in the Mtr Hong Kong metro were closed.
