Russia Damages Chinese Consulate in Odesa Amid Drone Part Scrutiny & Sanctions
On July 3, a Russian missile and drone strike on Odesa damaged the building of the Chinese Consulate General. Following the attack, Ukrainian officials discovered a Chinese-made component in a Russian-Iranian Shahed-136 drone. China, a key partner of Russia, has yet to acknowledge the incident or any damage to its diplomatic premises. Furthermore, reports suggest China’s support for Russia’s war effort is expanding, with a high-level official stating Beijing cannot afford for Russia to lose the war.
