Hong Kong police have banned a vigil marking the Tiananmen Square crackdown for the first time in 30 years.
Authorities said the decision was due to health concerns over coronavirus.
However, there are fears this may end the commemorations, as China seeks to impose a new law making undermining its authority a crime in the territory.
Currently, Hong Kong and Macau are the only places in Chinese territory where people can commemorate the deadly 1989 crackdown on pro-democracy protesters.
In mainland China, the authorities have banned even oblique references the events of June 4, which came after weeks of mass demonstrations that were tolerated by the government.
Whether the commemoration will be allowed to go ahead in Hong Kong next year - when the new law targeting what Beijing considers to be terrorism and subversion in the territory will most likely be in force - is unclear.
