Hong Kong lawmakers say no to more rights for same-sex couples

Hong Kong lawmakers have rejected a bill granting limited rights to same-sex couples, dealing a blow to the city's gay rights movement. The proposal aimed to recognize some rights for couples married overseas but was opposed by the majority of Legislative Council members. With rising support for the LGBTQ community, human rights groups like Amnesty International have criticized the decision and urged authorities to introduce a revised bill to protect same-sex couples' rights.
