The name “Israel” has been wiped from China’s top digital maps, while the names of neighboring countries remain intact. What could the deletion mean as the war intensifies between Israel and Hamas terrorists?

China’s foreign minister hints that an upcoming U.S. meeting might not be smooth sailing. That’s as potential talks between President Joe Biden and Chinese leader Xi Jinping are expected next month.
