The US international financial information site WSJ Wall Street Journal reported on Tuesday the 31st, ``China has removed the name of Israel from its online world map as the Palestinian-Gaza conflict intensifies.'' According to Ilnar news agency, WSJ said, ``Netizens say that IT giant Baidu and e-commerce giant Alibaba Group have removed Zionist regime Israel from their online maps and apps, and China's online maps now include Jordan. , Egypt, and neighboring countries are mentioned, but the name of Israel is not present.'' Furthermore, online maps from Baidu, the Chinese version of Google Maps, show boundaries and outlines between Israeli-occupied territories and other countries' territories, but do not clearly identify them as countries. On the 7th of this month, the Palestinian resistance organization launched an anti-Zionist surprise attack operation called ``Aqsa Storm'' against Israeli military bases from Gaza (southern Palestine). In order to avenge and compensate for its defeat and to halt the activities of the resistance, this infanticidal regime of Israel has closed all checkpoints in the Gaza Strip. Israel has also bombed residential areas and hospitals, killing more than 8,000 people, 70% of them women and children.
