Hong Kong pro-democracy protesters out in force

Tens of thousands of protesters are marching in Hong Kong.

Axar.az reports citing foreign media.

For the first time since August, police have allowed a rally by the Civil Human Rights Front, one of the territory's largest pro-democracy groups.

Police said 11 people were arrested ahead of the rally in raids and that a handgun was seized.

The protests started in June over a controversial extradition bill, and have now evolved into broader anti-government demonstrations.

"I will fight for freedom until I die," said June, a 40-year-old mother.
