政府發言人就昨天（八月十三日）晚上示威者在香港國際機場的暴力行為回應如下：

A large number of protesters had assembled at the airport since yesterday afternoon,paralysing airport operationand causing serious disruption to both inbound and outbound travelers.

A number of violent protesters attacked a police officer when the Police attended to the incident, seriouslyjeopardisingthe officer』s personal safety.

昨天自下午起大批示威者在機場集結，癱瘓機場運作，嚴重影響出入境旅客，已遠超和平示威行為。到晚上，有暴徒行為變本加厲，分別包圍及毆打一名旅客及一名記者，並阻止救護人員將該名旅客送院。警方到場處理事件時，多名暴徒更襲擊警務人員，嚴重威脅警務人員人身安全。

The Government severely condemns these violent acts, which are outrageous and haveoverstepped the bottom line of a civilised society. The Police will take relentless enforcement action to bring the persons involved to justice.

這些暴力行為遠超文明社會底線，令人髮指，特區政府予以最嚴厲的譴責。警方一定會嚴正追究，將涉案者繩之於法。
