Protesters in Hong Kong launched a city-wide strike on Monday, disrupting air, road and rail transport. More than 2,300 aviation workers reportedly took sick leave causing the cancellation of more than 200 flights. Subway services were suspended in the morning, but resumed in the afternoon. There were also multiple blockades that closed down major roads. Some protesters even attacked police stations. Hong Kong authorities have condemned the latest violence and the use of separatist slogans.
