On 24th May 2020 after months without protests because of Covid 19, people in Hong Kong have occupied the streets of Causeway Bay. During the day around 150 people has been arrested and tear gas was fired along the street of the city. The march was organised to protest against the National Anthem Law, but after Beijing's decision to write a National Security Law which threats part of the autonomy of the former British colony, anger and frustration of many people poured in the streets.
