Hong Kong’s national security police issued arrest warrants for 19 activists based overseas on July 25, accusing them of subversion under a stringent national security law, and offering financial rewards for information leading to their arrest.

The National Security Department of the Hong Kong Police Force said in a statement that the individuals are suspected of organizing, establishing, or taking part in a group called the “Hong Kong Parliament.“
