China names former navy chief Dong Jun as new defence minister | All about him | Oneindia
On Friday, China appointed former Navy chief Dong Jun as the new Defense Minister, replacing Li Shangfu, who mysteriously disappeared four months ago after being fired.
Although the reasons for Li Shangfu's disappearance were not specified, Dong's appointment comes at a time of increased military tensions, particularly concerning Taiwan, and aligns with China's ongoing efforts to enhance its military capabilities.
The appointment of Dong Jun as China's Defense Minister is a strategic move in line with President Xi Jinping's broader vision to position China as a leading global power.
In his role as the defence minister, Dong will serve as a pivotal figure, acting as the public face of the People's Liberation Army (PLA), engaging with the media, and collaborating with other armed forces.
This appointment underscores China's commitment to ongoing military advancements, reflecting a larger transformation in global geopolitical dynamics.

In a devastating attack on Monday evening in Zhuhai, southern China, a car ploughed into a crowd of pedestrians, leaving at least 35 dead and over 40 injured. The attack occurred at the Zhuhai Sports Centre, where people were exercising on the internal roads when a 62-year-old driver, identified as Fan, drove his SUV through the gate and into the crowd.
Footage from the scene, which has surfaced online, shows horrifying images of victims lying motionless on the running track, while firefighters administer CPR to some of the injured. The driver, who was found in his car with self-inflicted injuries, is now in a coma and unable to undergo questioning. Authorities have confirmed the death toll and are investigating the incident, while Chinese President Xi Jinping has called for all-out efforts to treat the injured and bring the perpetrator to justice.
