China

The Chinese authorities eased some Covid restrictions in Urumqi, the capital of the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, on Monday, after a deadly fire in the city wreaked havoc among people.

The officials said at a press conference on Monday that people can travel around on buses to run errands within their home districts from Tuesday.

People blamed Covid-19 lockdowns in Urumqi for the fire accident. Many social media users said that the zero-Covid policy affected rescue efforts. People demanded an end to the zero-Covid policy. People protested outside Urumqi's government offices after the deadly fire. They chanted, "Lift lockdowns!"

However, the Chinese authorities said that private cars obstructed firefighters. Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian also denied such claims. Later on, the Chinese authorities eased some Covid restrictions in Urumqi. The authorities further said that Urumqi would also resume parcel delivery services.

A BBC journalist in China was also arrested by the authorities. The Foreign Correspondents' Club of China slammed the authorities for treating reporters unfairly.

In recent months, China intensified lengthy quarantines and mass testing campaigns. The authorities also closed down large parts of China's capital as national Covid-cases increased rapidly in recent months.
