China's Military Faces Turmoil Amid High-Level Corruption Probes
TL;DR Summary
China has suspended top military official Miao Hua amid a crackdown on corruption within its armed forces. Miao, a senior member of the Central Military Commission, is under investigation for "serious violations of discipline," a term often linked to corruption. This move is part of President Xi Jinping's broader anti-corruption campaign, which has seen several military officials removed. Meanwhile, reports of Defense Minister Dong Jun being investigated were dismissed as fabrications by a Chinese Defense Ministry spokesperson.
