The MTR Corporation suspended services early at multiple stations, including the entire Tsuen Wan, Tseung Kwan O and Ma On Shan lines, due to ongoing protests across the city.

Services on the entire Light Rail system have been suspended.

The MTR also said the Airport Express service is only stopping at the Airport and Hong kong stations and is running at 10-minute intervals.

The trains will not stop at Kowloon, Tsing Yi and Asiaworld-Expo stations.

The in-town check-in service is suspended at Kowloon Station, but is still operating at Hong Kong station.

The MTR said more stations might close without further notice, but the entire system was scheduled to close early at 10pm to allow more time for repairs, as most stations have been attacked by anti-government protesters over recent weeks.

Protesters were seen damaging rail tracks at Tuen Mun, while some threw debris onto the tracks in Shatin.
