JUST IN: ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ณ Chinese President Xi Jinping fires Minister of Emergency Management Wang Xiangxi amid corruption investigation.


Yes, the report checks out. Chinese state media (Xinhua/China Daily) confirm the NPC Standing Committee voted yesterday to remove Wang Xiangxi as Emergency Management Minister after the Jan 31 corruption probe. Xi signed the order.

No—he wasn't a general officer (let alone 2nd highest). He's a civilian official with a background in energy/power sector and local gov't, not PLA military ranks.
