Activists created a large banner illustrating the timeline of the protest movement which is approaching the seven-month-mark. Participants were seen writing down messages of support and encouragement.
Despite heavy rain, the protesters met the sunset on the square, showing their support to the activists speaking and singing from the stage.
One of the speakers repudiated police brutality, saying it "triggers more and more peaceful non-violent protesters to stand up against the government."
