HONG KONG - Hundreds of secondary school students, many wearing masks with their uniforms, formed human chains in districts across Hong Kong on Monday in support of anti-government protesters after another weekend of clashes in the Chinese-ruled city.
Chinese state media on Monday said Hong Kong was an inseparable part of China and any form of secessionism"will be crushed". The protesters' other demands include the retraction of the word"riot" to describe demonstrations, the release of all those arrested and the right for Hong Kong people to choose their own leaders.
