As soon as the product launch conference of Baiwang Group made everyone hot for two days, a bucket of ice water was poured head-on. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

At 6 p.m. on June 3, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China issued a notice.

The Huaxia Embassy in South Africa confirmed that the Huaxia Mining Group suffered a large-scale armed attack by no less than 500 people in the mining area of KwaZulu-Natal Province in northern South Africa.

At present, it can be confirmed that 11 people have been killed and 176 people have been kidnapped.

The methods of this group of militants were so cruel that the bodies of the eleven people who were killed were suspended from a wooden frame.

According to the results of the inquest at the scene, two of them were seriously injured, incapacitated, and after being suspended, died of blood loss.

One of them, who had been severely ill-treated, was flanked with a leather whip all over his body, and the cause of death was a stab wound to the neck artery.

It can be seen that this group of militants has no mercy and humanitarianism, and is a terrorist in the truest sense of the word.

The identities of the 11 people killed have been determined to be security guards of Huaxia Mining Group.

The other hostages have been taken into Eswatini and it is not yet certain what their situation is.

China's ambassador to South Africa, Li Song, has been authorized by China to urgently contact the Eswatini government to request assistance in rescuing the hostages, but has not received any reply.

At present, Ambassador Li Song is holding urgent consultations with the South African government to discuss ways to rescue the hostages.

Due to the increase in trade barriers, African mining areas have been attacked frequently, and all overseas companies are systematically evacuating and returning home.

In this attack, 187 people from the Huaxia Mining Group were originally scheduled to evacuate on June 15, but they did not want to be attacked at the last moment when they were about to return home.

The victims were all security guards in the mining area, and based on the scene, it can be determined that there was a fierce resistance before the killing.

In the end, because of the inferior weapons and outnumbered, he was brutally killed.

The mine hired a local defense company to take care of the security, but at the time of the attack, the defense company did nothing and allowed the attack to happen.

At the same time, there is reason to believe that there were people inside South Africa who indulged the attack, otherwise the militants would not have entered and exited the border so easily.

At present, all the staff of the Chinese Embassy in South Africa are working intensively to rescue the abducted compatriots.

As soon as the news came out, the whole country was dumbfounded.

The photographs of the victim's body hanging from the wooden frame are horrific.

The thought of the unexplained situation of 176 compatriots made everyone's hearts tug.

Then they were all filled with anger and righteous indignation.

Retribution must be paid in blood, and all the militants, conniversers and conspirators involved in the attack must not be spared.

A small country that dared to blatantly kill Chinese compatriots, even hanged their bodies to demonstrate!

Not killing is not enough to anger the people, not killing is not enough to show the prestige of the country!

As a result, the masses in the country spontaneously gathered and prepared to demonstrate to let Eswatini know what patriotic anger is.

The gathered crowd suddenly discovered that Eswatini and China had no diplomatic relations, and therefore no embassies.

But it doesn't matter, the South African government has an unshirkable responsibility, and it is the same to go there to demonstrate.

Soon, a large crowd gathered in front of the South African embassy, holding banners in protest.

The South African government was asked to explain why the defense companies hired had done nothing, and the local government and the uniformed system had left themselves to their own devices.

South Africa's ambassador to China, Dolana Msiman, looked at the crowd of demonstrators outside, and was also very depressed.

She didn't know the news at all, but she saw the news after seeing the demonstrators gathering.

However, as the representative organ of South Africa in China, there is no such thing as an unwarranted disaster, and it must bear the brunt of the wrath.

At seven o'clock in the evening, the No. 1 ruling chairman made a public address to the masses throughout the country.

"Today, we received this very sad news!"

"Eleven compatriots were killed, one hundred and seventy-six compatriots were abducted, and their fate is unknown."

"I'm saddened!"

"To the families and loved ones of the eleven victims, I want to say that I am sorry."

"The state did not protect them well, so that you lost your relatives."

"Please also take care of your health, the state will definitely take measures to bring the murderer to justice, so as to comfort the souls of the deceased in heaven."

"You have lost your loved ones, please don't be overly sad, you still have the party and the government, and the 1.4 billion compatriots, we are all your relatives."

"Kidnapped compatriots, we are trying to rescue them, no matter how it ends, we will take them home!"

"The party and the state have sent a condolence task force to visit and comfort the relatives of the compatriots who were killed and the relatives of the abducted compatriots, and provide them with necessary assistance."

"Please rest assured, as long as there is no news of one person, we will definitely chase after it!"

"At present, we are in urgent communication with relevant countries, hoping to rescue the abducted compatriots peacefully and safely through diplomatic means."

"However, we are not afraid to use force to rescue the plan!"

"At present, all the officers and soldiers of the African peacekeeping force have been urgently mobilized, and diplomats are coordinating the means of transport and the route of transportation in preparation for the armed rescue."

"At the same time, the naval ships in the Gulf of Aden carrying out escort missions have moved towards Eswatini as the vanguard of the rescue force."

"Two aircraft carrier fleets are also on emergency voyage and will be deployed on the east and west coasts of Africa to provide protection for other compatriots and expatriates."

"If there is one compatriot stranded in Africa, the fleet will never be withdrawn."

"If the 176 abducted people suffer misfortune, then the relevant countries, organizations, and individuals are ready to bear the wrath of Huaxia!"

"The wrath of war!"

"This is war!"

"Our fleet will make those who committed atrocities repent in iron and fire!"

"The vast China, the mighty China, has experienced countless sufferings, but we will never acquiesce to this suffering."

"We will not swallow our anger, our fleet will provide protection for every Chinese citizen, and will seek justice for every victim."

"I solemnly warn the countries concerned to actively cooperate with us and take concrete actions to rescue our 176 compatriots."

"Perfunctory, shirking, pretending to be deaf and dumb, you can't shirk responsibility, if there are consequences that we don't want to see, then be ready to regret it!"

"I also solemnly warn the organizations and individuals who committed the atrocities to pull back from the precipice and release and return our abducted compatriots as soon as possible, and not to make mistakes again and again."

"We don't want to provoke a war, but we are definitely not afraid to provoke it!"

"For the sake of our compatriots, we are not afraid to use all means!"

"I hope that our 187 compatriots will be able to return home as soon as possible!"

"Finally, let us observe a moment of silence for our compatriots who have been killed and pray for our compatriots who have been abducted."
