Videos have immerged reportedly showing the demolition of a Tibetan temple complex in Beihai, China. The footage from October 2019 shows a large number of police guarding the scene before excavators move in and tear down buildings. According to witnesses the destruction came after “the local Ethnic and Religious Affairs Bureau issued a notice, ordering to crack down on Tibetan Buddhist venues in the locality”.
