It emphasized that what has been reported from Zuwahra’s testimony represents only a portion of what he endured, as it only includes what was permitted to be made public. The testimony contains other extremely harsh and shocking details, confirming that the prison guards deliberately attempted to kill him by firing rubber-coated bullets at him directly and repeatedly after he was transferred to Nafha Prison.

The PPS noted that Zuwahra was recently transferred back to Ganot Prison, and that he is a former prisoner who has spent a total of 17 years in Israeli prisons, seven of which were under actual sentences, while the remainder were spent in administrative detention. He was re-detained by the Israeli occupation forces in February 2025 and placed under administrative detention.

Zuwahra is the brother of the slain Palestinian Mu’taz Zuwahra, while another brother, Mohammad Zawahra, has also previously been detained. He is married and a father of four, and lost his father on the second day of his most recent detention.

Zheng Qian, a professor at the West China Hospital of Stomatology, said the Chinese team arrived in Maputo on June 27 and had completed all 21 operations by July 6. Some of the children underwent second-stage corrective surgery that noticeably improved the shape of their lips and noses.

The head of the dental department at Maputo Central Hospital praised the Chinese doctors’ professionalism and their close cooperation with local staff, adding that the program also gave Mozambican surgeons a chance to learn advanced techniques. The mother of one young patient said the operation would improve her daughter’s speech and breathing and help restore her confidence.

First Offense - Yang Youlin (杨有林) was sentenced to death!

China: Yang Youlin [杨有林] – “Sentenced to Death” [First Offense] – for “Capitalist Greed”! (7.7.2026)

07/07/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

Joseph Stalin abolished the Death Penalty throughout the USSR in 1948. Khrushchev, being a tyrannical Trotskyite, copied the US practice of putting to death its own civil population for crimes, and although exempting political crimes, permitted the Soviet Courts to inflict the Death Sentence on any civilian for any capital crime (c. 1959). Cuba also executed its political enemies (often on film) – but so did the US and its numerous proxies (see South Korea and Vietnam – but also Liberia – and of course ISIS and Al Qaeda, etc). Israel murders directly in accordance with Biblical scripture – so no one’s hands are clean. Interestingly, China is attempting to move away from the “Death Penalty” with the “Suspended Death Penalty” – but that did not apply in this case, due to the amount of money involved and the scope of the corruption. Yang Youlin caused tremendous suffering to the ordinary Chinese people under the guise of the authority of the CPC – and so he must pay the highest price for this betrayal. Where in the West capitalist greed is encouraged and rewarded – this is not so in China.

China - Cuba Friendship - Socialist Solidarity!

China: US Urged to End Blockade of Cuba! (7.7.2026)

Mao made the remarks at a new briefing when asked to comment on the speeches of Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel, who warned that the U.S. blockade of Cuba has reached a “critical level” and constitutes a genocide threat, and he has called for a special session of the UN General Assembly on July 7 to address the issue.

The spokesperson noted that the comprehensive blockade and illegal sanctions imposed by the U.S. on Cuba for over 60 years are disastrous for the Cuban people.

Recently, the U.S. has further escalated these blockade and sanctions measures, which have severely undermined the basic livelihoods of the Cuban people and drawn great concern from the international community, Mao said.

China firmly supports Cuba in safeguarding its national sovereignty and opposes external interference and stands ready to work with the international community to uphold international fairness and justice, the spokesperson concluded.

China: New Book [Black Box: Unit 731 – By Jin Chengmin] Confirms US Benefitted From Japanese “Unit 731” Atrocities Post-WWII! (6.7.2026)

Having made more than 30 research trips to Japan and carried out interviews with former Unit 731 members, he has preserved over 400 hours of oral video archives, more than 20,000 criminal relics and 300,000 pages of original historical documents.

The book’s title carries two core implications, Jin explained. It symbolizes the classified core secrets and deadly human experimentation chambers of Unit 731, as well as the post-war backroom deal — the United States acquired the Japanese unit’s germ warfare data in exchange for covering up its heinous crimes.

This year marks the 81st anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People’s War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War, the 80th anniversary of the opening of the Tokyo Trials, and the 77th anniversary of the 1949 Khabarovsk War Crimes Trials.

UK: Anti-China Racism [1971] – Black & White Minstrel Show! (5.7.2026)

. Their body language became coquettish and supposedly seductive – as Asian women were viewed as something akin to prostitutes (being always available for sexual activity). Chinese people (in relatively small numbers) had been in the UK for hundreds of years – but in 1919 the British government ethnically-cleansed 20,000 Chinese from the UK (I think around the Liverpool area) as part of a post-WWI expression of British (racist) nationalism. In 1946, the Labour government expelled around 2000 Chinese people from London – effectively ending the “Chinatown” that existed in the East of that city (Docklands). It was not until 1956 that the Tory government once again allowed British-Chinese to come to live in the UK from the British colony of Hong Kong (creating the neew “Chinatown” in Gerrard Street) – this is when my Chinese grandfather – Chan Tin Sang (1924-1993) – came to the UK. In the clip above, White men are dressed-up as Black men, dressed-up as Chinese men – being neither “Black” nor “Chinese”. The White woman is yellow-facing – being neither “Asian” nor “Chinese”. As no one would employ Chinese people – they had to create jobs. Washing dirty clothes was one of their first industries – but this soon transitioned into selling their ethnic food – which became very successful.
