Hong Kong’s government said violence and illegal protests were pushing the city to an “extremely dangerous edge."
Sunday, police fired multiple rounds of tear gas to disperse hundreds of anti-government protesters.
According to Reuters, Beijing says it will not let the situation persist.
The Chinese-controlled financial hub has been rocked by months of protests.
They began as a protest against a proposed bill to allow people to be extradited to stand trial in mainland China.
The protests have since developed into calls for greater democracy.
