China's Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) lifted a lockdown early Monday morning after testing 7,000 residents in the neighborhood of Jordan in Kowloon.

Thirteen of those tested were positive for COVID-19, the government said.

About 10,000 residents in the densely populated area were put under an unprecedented lockdown by the HKSAR government last Saturday, in a bid to contain a worsening COVID-19 outbreak in the city.
