Joshua Wong, 30, was sentenced to 10 years in jail for colluding with foreign forces under Hong Kong's national security law, the BBC reported. Prosecutors said Wong, who pleaded guilty, lobbied with exiled activist Nathan Law for foreign sanctions, and the judge ordered only a limited overlap with his ongoing sentence.
