Hong Kong police have issued arrest warrants for five activists based overseas, accusing them of violating the national security law imposed by Beijing. Rewards of 1 million Hong Kong dollars ($128,000) each were offered for information leading to their arrests. The activists, including hosts of a YouTube channel and pro-democracy figures, were targeted for offenses like colluding with foreign forces and incitement to secession. The move is part of the Hong Kong government’s escalating crackdown on dissidents, with earlier warnings issued to activists living abroad. Critics denounce the use of bounties as an intimidation tactic against dissenting voices.
