01:41Hong Kong: Barricades and barriers still in place at university after night of clashes
Trees and makeshift brick walls were still blocking roads in the aftermath of clashes between police and anti-government protesters at the Chinese University of Hong Kong in Sha Tin on Thursday.
Chinese and foreign students have reportedly suspended their studies at major universities within the territory as clashes have broken out at multiple university campuses, with some institutions announcing an early end to the current academic term.
Hong Kong has been rocked by protests sparked by a now-withdrawn extradition bill since March.
The rallies have since evolved into a wider movement against the government, marked by violent clashes between protesters and the authorities.
