Hong Kong's leader is worried about the protests taking place in the city. She said they are affecting daily life. She said the city is on "the verge of an extremely dangerous situation". Hong Kong had protests for the ninth weekend in a row. Protestors fought with police. A citywide strike disrupted transport. Traffic was brought to a standstill as streets were blocked. Protestors made sure trains could not move by keeping their doors open, angering passengers.
