In the series of demonstrations, peaceful protests often developed into clashes between the demonstrators and the police, and the police used tear gas, water cannons, rubber bullets, batons, etc. for suppression. There have been several occasions where live ammunition is fired towards the sky.

Police argue that violence by demonstrators is intensifying and that they are restrained.
