Bombing of Chinese Coal Power Plant Kills 10


According to sources given anonymity for their own protection, a major coal-fired power plant in northern China was hit by the Chinese eco-terror group "Earth's Righteous Fist" last month. Seven bombs placed around the power plant brought the entire facility down, killing at least 10 workers. The Chinese government has not confirmed the attack and has threatened reporters with deportation for asking about it.

Earth's Righteous Fist emerged in late 2016 in response to the worsening of air quality in major cities across China, linked to the accelerated deployment of coal-fired power plants in the first decade of the century. Global health officials have attributed tens of thousands of deaths in the region to the use of coal power.

According to European intelligence sources, this is the eighth coal power plant struck by the terror group since 2016.
