Protestors and riot police are in confrontation outside the Ngau Tau Kok Police Staton with much tension. Over 200 police officers stationing on the scene are led by foreign superintendent David Jordan, next to whom several Police ‘Raptors’ are guarding. All of a sudden and without any prior warning, two of the Police ‘Raptors’ fired 3 rounds of bullets, upon which the red flag is raised.

Police ignored an injured protestor's lack of ability to walk and continued to drag him on the road. A first-aider raised a flag which said, "Obstruction of medical care is a violation of the International Humanitarian Law, and a breach of the IHL is a serious criminal offence" to show their discontent towards the police's behaviour.

The Police fired three rounds of tear gas grenades at Wai Yip Street to disperse protesters. Rubber bullets and/or bean bag rounds had also been fired, and had advanced for 200 yards, but still maintain distance with the protesters. Smoke covered the scene, and while some protesters tried the avoid the tear gas, some extinguished it. Source: USP United Social Press #HK

Donald Trump landed in France with First Lady Melania for the #G7 summit Saturday, after taking a swipe at fellow leaders, calling them 'friends of mine, for the most part' but not in '100 percent of the cases'. The president threw shade at some of America's closest partners on Friday evening, mere hours before he'd see them in Biarritz at the Group of Seven summit. He threatened to tax French 'like they've never seen before' and characterized world leaders attending the event as 'friends for the most part' in front of Marine One.
