The attacker, a 50 yr old man, has just been confirmed dead, having stabbed himself in the heart after the attack.
This is extremely devastating and heartbreaking💔. The despair one must undergo to resort to such an extreme act. What has Hong Kong become, only within one year?😢
Unbelievably heartbreaking
The despair and desperation caused by the Chinese Communist Party regime in #HongKong is clear, palpable and devastatingly tragic

When people have no hope, stuff like this will happen more.
No where in the world do more aggressive police ever equal a less violent society. As police powers increase, so does public violence. They are linked.

Saddened to hear reports of fatal shooting in Mandalay. The #Myanmar military must stop all violence against peaceful protestors. We stand by the people of Myanmar.
Tonight, in front of US embassy, we pray and express our sorrow for what happened in Mandalay today and for our stolen country #Myanmar.
May all be freedom from fear and no more sadness.

Often feel a lone voice on this, but something about which @JimmyLaiApple and I always agreed:
The international community (especially the U.K.) made treaty promises to Hong Kong which it is FAILING to keep.
And “lifeboat” schemes don’t change that. #HKFightOn
Thanks, Xi Jinping.
