With protests at Hong Kong airport, countries (including UK & Singapore) issue advisory

In the wake of protests at Hong Kong International Airport, several countries including Japan, South Korea, Ireland, Canada and UK have issued an advisory to passengers travelling to Hong Kong. This protest is to draw attention of international visitors to a controversial extradition bill. Reports indicate demonstrations are likely to continue to take place in Hong Kong over the weekend. The local police has granted approval for the rally at the airport, but banned another protest planned for Sunday in Yuen Long. However, the organisers of this weekend’s protest said they would go ahead with their march despite the ban.
