Both Disney and the Hong Kong Office of the Communications Authority, which oversees broadcasters in the city, did not immediately return FOX Business' requests for comment. .

In addition to the episode's apparent removal, Hong Kong authorities have banned gatherings commemorating the massacre, citing pandemic restrictions.

A museum dedicated to the events at Tiananmen Square was also closed down following a visit from police, and Hong Kong University previously announced plans to remove a statue from its campus commemorating the victims, according to The Wall Street Journal. .
