An unusually broad coalition of countries is calling out Beijing for its hacking practices. Its #CyberEspionage campaign is believed to target sensitive technology. Rallies in support of Falun Gong are happening from North America to Europe. The Chinese Communist Party has been waging a brutal persecution against the spiritual movement for 22 years. A surprise addition to the line-up of this year’s Cannes film festival. A documentary is shining a spotlight on Hong Kong’s 2019 pro-democracy protest movement. Heavy rains hit China’s Inner Mongolia region. Two reservoirs have burst, destroying more than 20 bridges. And Chinese telecom company #Xiaomi just leapfrogged Apple — becoming the world’s second largest smartphone vendor. Former U.S. president Trump blacklisted the company. But president Biden removed the label.
