Leaders of Hong Kong's Democratic Party announce plans to dissolve what was once the city's largest opposition group.

Members will soon vote on the final decision on whether to shut down the 31-year-old party.

The party has been struggling to survive following moves by China to crack down on dissent in the city in the wake of the 2019 protests.
