FAKE NEWS: UK Media Claims Demolished Mall is Part of China’s Uyghur “Cultural Genocide”

British media org Sky News has been caught lying about “uncovered evidence” of cultural genocide in China’s Xinjiang region. In fact, all Sky News has done in its recent June 2021 report is repeat lies made by the Western media for the past 3-4 years, citing fake rights groups funded by the US government through the National Endowment for Democracy.

One claim is that the Xinjiang city of Hotan’s skyline has been disfigured by the “eraser” of a Islamic-style tower – which in reality was just a 360 degree cafe built in 2010 and went out of business not even 10 years later.
