    Shocking photos sent to CNN from inside PolyU campus show gas canister covered in bolts. Unclear if the canister has any fuel inside or could be detonated. Police spox told CNN they are aware of gas canisters being used as weapons against them. https://edition.cnn.com/asia/live-news/hong-kong-protests-live-nov-18-intl-hnk/h_7806c2a38f45d96f5f2b6eb1236e7ead …pic.twitter.com/0xqUXhO0Gi

        This is terrorism. No two ways about it. We have all seen pictures of burning bridges, tank flaming up, that driver severely burnt, police shot by arrows, tunnel destroyed, HK transport paralysed, normal citizens life severely impacted. The world does not need more terrorism

        It's nitric oxide. It's non-flammable. The most it would do is turn into oxygen at high temperatures and make already existing fires worse. It's completely useless as an explosive in this configuration.

        This is not the story. The story is the Police outside besieging them.

        Sadly an uneducated attempt. Even if they managed to get the canister to explode, it's not gonna work like a grenade.

        Aren’t those tanks purpose built to NOT explode catastrophically?
