Hong Kong mothers march in support of anti-extradition students

Hong Kong mothers march in support of anti-extradition studentsThousands of mothers marched in Hong Kong on Friday in support of students who have taken to the streets in recent weeks to protest against an extradition bill that would allow people to be sent to mainland China for trial. Hong Kong Chief Executive Carrie Lam has asked to meet students in the Chinese-ruled city as she tries to fend off pressure after a month of protests over a proposed law that has plunged the Chinese-ruled city into turmoil. Protesters stormed Hong Kong's legislature on Monday, the 22nd anniversary of the former British colony's return to China.
