An FT report - How China is tearing down Islam - "Thousands of mosques have been altered or destroyed as Beijing’s suppression of Islamic culture spreads".
Mosque demolitions and modifications have been documented in Xinjiang, the northwestern region where hundreds of thousands of Turkic Muslims have been detained, and there has been some evidence of architectural changes elsewhere.
But the Financial Times has now found that Beijing’s crackdown on Islam has spread to almost every region of the country.

Of course no one cares - and certainly no Muslim countries, nor the crowds chanting for Free Palestine and calling out the supposed "genocide" in Gaza. The Al-Aqsa Mosque is still there, still in use, in Jerusalem. But....well, Jews....it's different.
