Hong Kong’s leader has warned that continued protests have pushed the territory to “a very dangerous situation.” Carrie Lam’s comments came after repeated clashes in recent days between police and pro-democracy demonstrators. In some cases, police fired tear gas and rubber bullets. Protesters called for a general strike Monday. Many blocked major roads near government buildings, including the city’s parliament. Other protesters crowded around police stations. The strike delayed train and bus services across the territory and led to the cancellation of more than 150 flights. Earlier, Lam spoke to reporters for the first time in two weeks. She warned that the continuing demonstrations were threatening Hong Kong’s security and severely harming the territory’s economy.
