Hong Kong Begins Tiananmen Vigil Trial

In Hong Kong, a trial is starting for three former leaders of a group that used to organize annual events to remember the Tiananmen Square protests in 1989.

These protests were against the Chinese government, and the group wanted to end the one-party rule in China.

The Chinese government doesn't allow people to talk about these protests, and Hong Kong has a new law that makes it illegal to try to change the government.

The three leaders are being tried for breaking this law.

They could go to jail for up to 10 years.

The trial is important because it shows how Hong Kong is changing under Chinese rule.

Some people think the trial is unfair because it's being used to silence people who disagree with the government.

The leaders say they are being punished for their beliefs, but the government says the law is needed to keep order.
