Hong Kong authorities are beefing up security ahead of an unauthorized rally by pro-democracy protesters.
Water-filled plastic security barriers went up around a rail terminal where Sunday’s protest march will finish. It’s the latest rally in the 5-month-old unrest rocking the semi-autonomous Chinese city.
The city’s subway operator has restricted passenger access to the West Kowloon train station.

Hong Kong has witnessed several months of mass protests, originally triggered by a now withdrawn extradition bill, that have turned into a wider pro-democracy movement. EPA-EFE/LYNN BO BO Organizers say the march will go ahead despite police refusing to approve the procession, citing risks to public safety.
