#HKgov is trying to throw literally the grandfathers/ grandmothers of democracy in #HongKong into jail.
The charge? an unlawful assembly case dated 18 Aug 2019, one of the most soaked and peaceful public assembly in that year.

Nations are ultimately built on stories. Each passing day adds more stories that Ukrainians will tell not only in the dark days ahead, but in the decades and generations to come. #StandWithUkraine🇺🇦 twitter.com/berdynskykh_k/…

Truly sad to see 612 Humanitarian Relief Fund announce the closure of its operations today.
The organization did so much to provide support for those injured and arrested in the Hong Kong protests.
Thank you, @612Fund.

What Ukraine 🇺🇦 is going through right now resonates with many Hong Kongers. None of us was born to fight the #CCP🇨🇳. Few of us are interested in politics. But when our fundamental freedoms are attacked, we have no choice but to fight and defend them. twitter.com/EtoBuziashvili…

The 612 Humanitarian Relief Fund provided support for the injured and arrested in the #HongKong protests.
The arrest of Dr. Po-Keung Hui at the airport, before arresting the remaining fund trustees afterwards on NSL charges, proves that there’s a list of people who cannot leave.
An independent, crowdfunded advocacy group. Founded by a collective of individuals who have come together to fight for freedom for #HongKong.
