Lam told the press conference that the government has invoked the power under the Emergency Regulations Ordinance and made a new regulation in the name of Prohibition on Face-Covering Regulation, to "create a deterrent effect against masked, violent protesters and rioters." The ban, designed to end violence and restore order, will come into effect on Friday midnight, Lam said. (Xinhua/Lui Siu Wai)
