    China urges Israel to place all nuclear facilities under IAEA safeguards

    Recently, comments by Israeli officials on the use of nuclear weapons in the Gaza Strip caused an uproar. China was shocked by statements and expressed concern. The Israeli statements were universally condemned. It is extremely irresponsible and disturbing. Such statements run counter to the international consensus that a nuclear war cannot be won and must not be fought, on contrary to the international spirit of establishing a Middle East zone free of nuclear weapons, and go against the overwhelming international call to deescalate, cease hostilities, and protect civilians, Geng noted.

    China urges Israeli officials to retract these statements, and we urge Israel to accede to the treaty on the non-proliferation of nuclear weapons as a non-nuclear weapon state as soon as possible and to place all its nuclear facilities under IAEA safeguards, Geng said.

    idk where these non profits get their funding, reads like a narrative more than a news. since everyone has nuke, it is a moot point.
