Zhuhai Tragedy: 35 Dead in China's Deadliest Car Attack in Years

Chinese authorities face criticism for censorship and delayed response following the deadly incident.

A 62-year-old driver, identified only by his surname Fan, drove an SUV into a crowd at a sports complex in Zhuhai, killing 35 and injuring 43.
The attack occurred during a local exercise session, with victims describing the crash as sounding like an 'earthquake.'
Chinese authorities have heavily censored information, swiftly removing videos and images from social media platforms.
President Xi Jinping has called for severe punishment of the perpetrator and emphasized the need for local governments to prevent similar incidents.
Public mourning has been stifled, with police removing flowers and candles from memorials and restricting media coverage.
