Hong Kong, August 5 (ANI): A Hong Kongmuseum that commemorates the victims of China s 1989 crackdown on protesters at Tiananmen Square re-opened online on Wednesday months after it was forced to shut down.
Last week, the Hong Kong Alliance that runs the museum was fined HK$8,000 for opening the museum without a proper licence.
Taking to Twitter, the Hong Kong Alliance wrote, The June 4 Memory & Human Rights Museum will officially open to the public on 4 August 2021.
On June 4, 1989, Chinese troops had entered Tiananmen Square in Beijing and fired on students gathered in the largest pro-democracy protests that the Communist regime never witnessed. The death toll ranged from several hundred to thousands.
