The Mass Transit Railway (MTR) said in a statement that the train service has been disrupted on the Airport Express due to someone trespassing and foreign objects on the track near the Airport Station.
"For safety reasons, train service has been adjusted because a number of facilities were damaged at various stations," MTR said.
A large group of protesters has been hurling numerous iron poles, bricks and rocks on the railway near the Airport Station since 4:00 p.m., with some even breaking on to the track, according to the police.
The protesters are participating in an unauthorized assembly, police said, adding that since an injunction order is in force at the airport, the protesters may be liable to "contempt of court."
