HKUST Students Held Memorial for Urumqi Fire Victims
Around 9pm on Nov 27, mainland students at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (#HKUST) gathered at the seafront in memory of the victims of the fatal apartment fire in Urumqi. They laid down paper cranes and candles, arranging them to form "11.24", the date of the fire. Students also placed candles and memorial messages at the university's north gate.
One person came dressed in the white protective gear often worn by Chinese anti-pandemic personnel who carried out lockdown and testing procedures. He marched from the seafront to the north gate, carrying a sign parodying the notices left on Chinese websites after being blocked by censors.
