Christmas Day in Hong Kong has seen no stop in clashes between police and pro-democracy protesters.
The police used tear gas and pepper spray as demonstrators gathered again in a number of shopping districts.
BBC News reports the latest protests began on Christmas Eve, with police battling activists who were throwing petrol bombs.
Hong Kong leader Carrie Lam said many residents and tourists had seen their Christmas celebrations "ruined by a group of reckless and selfish rioters".
The protests began in June, focusing on a bill that would have allowed the extradition of suspects to mainland China.
The bill was later withdrawn, but demonstrations have since evolved into a broader movement demanding investigations into police brutality and democratic reform.
