Hong Kong democracy activist Joshua Wong has been sentenced to 10 more years in prison, Deutsche Welle reported on 5 November 2026. Wong, once a teenage activist and a prominent face of the 2014 Umbrella Movement, has spent much of his adult life behind bars. The report describes the new sentence as adding to a prison term he is already serving, and it places the case within his long record as a pro-democracy campaigner. Deutsche Welle's account gives no further detail on the charges or the court's reasoning in the headline text available.
