Thousands of people across Hong Kong rushed to snap up the final edition of the pro-democracy newspaper Apple Daily, which has closed its doors after 26 years.
Supporters braved heavy rain to gather outside its offices where a million copies were being printed.
The publication decided to shut down after its reports were accused of breaching a national security law, leading to a freeze on company assets.
The closure is seen as a blow to press freedom under the pressure of Beijing.

Love from Ireland
Hong Kong now doesnโt need you people
China Criminal Party regime is no country but a transnational inhumanity criminal mafia aimed at taking down the US & democracy since day 1 through no-limit unrestricted warfare & bioweapons, to be replaced by CCP-Leninist ideologists.
@โ
CCP is illegally conquering HK which is a free liberal country that does not belong to CCP.
A Hong Kong martyr, 50-year-old senior executive Mr. Leung stabbed a commie mafia cop then killed himself.
Carrie Lam and her mob are criminals, traitors, the illegal, illegitimate government of Hong Kong. They must be jailed for life once CCP is kicked out of HK. @
Hong Kong's murdered and disappeared victims are more than the 1989 Tiananmen Massacre. CCP is currently committing discreetly genocide and ethnic cleansing in HK.
Primary 5 emperor Xi's 7300 words with 26 times "China Revival" broadcasted to the whole world in over a dozen languages: CCP must remain the core in leading China/Chinese under socialism and uniting all Chinese ethnics around the world. Interesting summary of Xi's rants in Cantonese, โ@โ
CCP constitution states all freedoms and voting rights protected but CCP never followed their own laws as they never kept their promises made in treaties, contracts & Sino British Joint Declaration.
Yesterday HK today the US & World!
Takedown CCP the giant mafia!

Notice the limitted camera angle lol, great tactic, with narrow angle, 20 people gathering can looks like 200 or 2000.
Hongkong Apple Daily and other biased local media was spreading and instigating hatred messages and misleading information to brainwash the public, such situation was similar to Nazi propaganda that is now banned in Germany and other countries.
The western media didn't tell both the truth of the above and terrorism acted by the pro-US rioters and politicians to damage, hurt and even kill other innocent and peaceful public who did only come out to request for stopping such damaging and terrorism act in Hong Kong.
Thus, such pro-US rioters and politicians were arrested and prosecuted by the Hong Kong government under the National Security Law in order to prohibit hypocrisy politicians who was abusing freedom of speech to spread rumors, smear, instigate the brainwashed public to violate general regulations of the public safety.
Some slavery Hong Kong people should immigrate to UK to become UK citizens because they are not Chinese. What a shame and this never happen in any single country or region around the world but in Hong Kong.
this pro-democracy paper has been making huge loss during the past years but its owner Jimmy Lai still could give HK$ 600 Mio shareholder loan to the company. God knows where did he get so much money, when his major business is just burning money.
Its owner Jimmy Lai also hired Mark Simon as his assistant, who is a former CIA.
I am really not surprised that this paper got into trouble. Actually its boss and management deserve this.
The idiots don't know the meaning of humiliation of the Chinese under the British opium rule
Congratulation China, well done.
We love you. ๐๐๐๐๐๐
Well done Hong Kong ๐๐๐๐๐๐
