China has replaced its top official in Hong Kong as anti-government protests in the semi-autonomous city enter their eighth month.
People walk by a vandalized road sign near a HSBC Bank branch covered by panels after damaged by pro-democracy protesters in Hong Kong, Saturday, Jan. 4, 2020. The months-long pro-democracy movement has extended into 2020 with further mass demonstrations.
Luo Huining, the former Communist Party chief for Shanxi province, has been appointed to head China's liaison office in Hong Kong, the official Xinhua News Agency said. The protests, which began in early June, have turned violent at times, with hard-line demonstrators clashing with police. The violence has eased somewhat in the past month, but sporadic clashes have continued.
