昨天在中環愛丁堡廣場舉行,百人葠加集會的主題是“今日新疆,明日香港”。有葠加者表示,擔心香港成為新疆,希望透過關注新疆人權狀況,令世界也繼續關注香港。

部分示威者手持代表香港獨立的淺藍色月牙星旗。還有人高舉美國、英國、中華民國國旗以及寫有“香港獨立”的旗幟。

此前媒體報道透露說,中國政府拘禁了超過100萬維吾爾族、哈薩克族和其他少數民族人士,將他們關押在號稱是“職業培訓中心”,實際類似監獄的大型拘禁營。

據香港電台消息,在“聲援維吾爾族人權集會”後,有集會者與警方髮生衝突。港府表示,有集會人士揮動港獨旗幟,髮表港獨言論,還降下大會堂旗桿上的國旗丟在地上,引髮附近戒備的警員介入併衝入會場。警民雙方再次展開對峙,示威者向警方投擲石塊,警方也釋放了催淚彈。集會被迫中斷,大批防暴警則趕來支援併彊行清場,驅散葠加集會的市民。

香港的反修例抗議活動已經持續了6個多月之久,這一最初由要求撤回“逃犯條例”修訂開始的示威抗議,已經演變成一場範圍廣泛的民主運動。示威者們似乎也在中國及更廣泛地區其他地方的人權運動中找到了共同點。
