Protesters Clash With Riot Police In Hong Kong: In Pictures

Thousands of protesters have taken to the streets of Hong Kong for the second time in less than a week, blocking roads around the legislature as lawmakers were due to begin days of debate on a controversial extradition law.

Police used tear gas and fired rubber bullets as they clashed with protesters in echoes of 2014, when pro-democracy demonstrations brought the city center to a halt and violence eventually erupted.
