An employee from the Israeli Embassy was injured in an apparent stabbing and hospitalized in Beijing on Friday. The motive behind the attack remains unclear, but it occurred following Israel’s criticism of China’s statement regarding Hamas’ unprecedented incursion into southern Israel, which triggered the ongoing conflict between Hamas and Israel.

★The incident was confirmed by Israel’s foreign ministry, but China did not immediately acknowledge it.
★The assault did not occur within the embassy’s premises, and the identity of the employee was not disclosed.
★This incident took place amid calls in Muslim nations to observe a ‘day of rage’ for mass protests denouncing Israel’s intensive bombing campaign in Gaza.
★The injured employee was transferred to the hospital and is in stable condition.
★Outside the Israeli Embassy in Beijing, a small number of plainclothes police officers were stationed.
★The incident has heightened tensions between China and Israel, despite recent attempts to establish closer ties.
★The United States has shown support to Israel through diplomatic visits, statements, and military aid, with a focus on de-escalating the regional conflict.
★Israel expressed disappointment to the Chinese envoy for the Middle East regarding China’s comments on the Hamas incursion.
★China expressed deep concern over the escalating tensions and violence between Israel and Palestine and called for an early ceasefire and peace talks based on the two-state solution.

In response to the global “day of Jihad” called for by former Hamas leader Khaled Meshaal, the New York Police Department (NYPD) is implementing additional security measures. The NYPD stated that there are no specific, credible threats to New York City but acknowledged concerns raised by online postings. Security measures are also being intensified in Washington, DC.

Overall, the stabbing incident in Beijing has added to the already tense situation between Israel and China. The ongoing conflict between Hamas and Israel continues to draw international attention and concern.
