    We've received this exclusive footage from 2 social workers trapped inside HK Polytechnic Uni (19:50 HK time), under siege by police. “The police told us it was safe to leave, but when we went out they released tear gas.” The police must immediately defuse the standoff at #PolyU.pic.twitter.com/pbHIqtfBDJ

        Are Hong Kong police have schizophrenia? They keep forcing people to go, but blocked all roads, what do they expect the people to do, using some magic and disappear at once?

        Please do something to save them. They are treated like hostages by #hkpolice with no supplies. #HumanitarianCrisis

        Hundreds are still trapped inside #polyu, as the university is now under police siege. Rifle wielding officers are seen everywhere inside the sealed campus. Students protesters are likely to be put behind bars for 10+ years for “rioting” charges. We need the world to see this.pic.twitter.com/RBOlhX0Pna
