Hong Kong Patriots-Only District Council Election Amid Beijing Crackdown
A police recruitment banner is being displayed on the polling day of the city's ''patriots-only'' District Council Election, amid crackdowns on democracy by Beijing, in Hong Kong, on December 10, 2023. No candidates from the democratic camps are being allowed to run in the election, while the Hong Kong government is also implementing Chinese-style patriotism education and has forced pro-democracy newspapers such as Apple Daily to shut down.
