A small aircraft appeared to have struck the tallest building in China’s capital on Friday afternoon, in a shocking incident in one of the world’s most fortified cities.
Dramatic footage from Beijing posted on social media showed debris falling from the 109-story CITIC Tower, also known as China Zun, as well as a tail section of the plane and a broken window of a taxicab on the ground.
A CNN journalist witnessed people evacuated from the skyscraper gathering on the streets near the entrance, along with firetrucks, police cars and an ambulance.
This seriously confuses me. Are they reporting this because a non Chinese citizen saw it and couldn’t block it fast enough? There’s been like 40 massive factories set on fire in the last 4 months by pissed off workers not getting paid and about a dozen acts of revenge against society attacks running kids over with their car. Haven’t seen a single thing about it in world news.
