Israel as a state was removed from all major Chinese maps services.

Verified Petal maps and Baidu's, on mobile applications

Did you personally check ? This guy on twitter is saying the opposite https://twitter.com/Kai_Wong_CN/status/1719219569443876891

you are right, fake news, you can search for Israel on Baidu Map, and it is there..

Not fake news, check on Google translate, don't pretend that you are so sure and that you have read Mandarin

Yes, upload the image to Google translate and check yourself

What image ? The one from the article ? That doesn't prove anything. Point is, if you try to access maps through Chinese apps, is Israel there or not ?

And that's how you sow disinformation.

Wiping countries off maps.

Israel is getting the Taiwan approach.

No disrespect but Taiwan is a island, it has always been on the map... The country you are referring to is Republic of China, it is not recognized by China so it is not on Chinese map...

I just checked with two Chinese map services, Israel is there.
