六四維園晚會被香港警禁 30年來首次 Hong Kong Police Ban Tiananmen Vigil for First Time in 30 Years

香港支聯會每年6月4日在維園舉辦六四燭光晚會，紀念1989年北京天安門廣場大屠殺。星期一收到警方以冠狀病毒大流行為理由，就活動發出反對通知書。是30年來首次六四晚會遭警方禁止。

支聯會主席李卓人表示，當晚會員仍將以不多於8人一組進入維園，以紀念六四。

當日下午將於全港各區設置至少60個街站分發蠟燭，呼籲公眾在晚上8:09在全城點燃蠟燭，默哀1分鐘，並參與網上集會以紀念六四大屠殺。 鼓勵公眾使用#6431truth標籤在社交媒體上分享照片和感受。

李卓人批評，在《港版國安法》頒布之前就禁六四集會，是政治決定。並指出學校已重開，允許舉行大型宗教聚會及商業活動已大致回復正常。

180,000人參加了去年6月4日30週年紀念燭光晚會（以上照片）。

令人驚嘆的六四維園燭光海不再？

Hong Kong Police Ban Tiananmen Vigil for First Time in 30 Years

Hong Kong police on Monday banned the annual June 4 vigil marking the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre citing the coronavirus pandemic, the first time in 30 years.

Lee Cheuk-yan, chair of the Hong Kong Alliance in Support of Patriotic Democratic Movements of China – organiser of the annual vigil, said alliance members would still enter Victoria Park in groups of 8 to comemorate that night.

At least 60 booths will be set up across the city in the afternoon to distribute candles and they called on the public to light candles at 8:09 pm across the city, observe 1 minute of silence and join an online rally to commemorate the June 4 massacre. The public are encouraged to share photos and messages on social media with hashtag #6431truth.

Lee Cheuk-yan called the ban a political decision even before the National Security Laws are enacted, pointing out that schools have reopened, large religious gatherings are allowed and commercial activities have largely resumed.

180,000 attended the annual candlelight vigil to commemorate the 30th anniversary of June 4 last year, shown in this photo.

The stunning sea of candles at June 4 vigil at Victoria Park is no longer?
