Saturday, 14 September 2019 11:06

Protesters in Hong Kong are planning to sit-ins at shopping mall.

It comes after they took to the city's hills to form lantern-carrying human chains.

They're the latest form of demonstrations that mark the deep unrest in the Chinese-ruled city.

Anti-government protestors are also planning to congregate outside the British Consulate on Sunday.

They're going to demand that China honors a Sino-British Joint Declaration that was signed in 1984 that laid out the former British colony’s future after its return to China.
