BEIJING, Aug. 11 (Xinhua) — The Longjiang No. 1 warehouse for Russian goods in Suifenhe City, northeast China's Heilongjiang Province, has been sending out about 4,000 orders daily in recent weeks. The figure is expected to exceed 10,000 when the peak sales season arrives in October, according to information posted on the Suifenhe city government website recently.

As one of the important hubs of China-Russia border trade, Longjiang No.1 Warehouse attracts a large number of consumers with its highly efficient supply chain and ability to supply high-quality Russian goods.

As orders continue to grow rapidly, more workers will be hired to work at the warehouse, which in turn will help boost employment in the city and the local economy, the warehouse administration said.

In the future, Longjiang No.1 Warehouse Management plans to improve the supply chain and increase distribution efficiency to meet the high consumer demand for Russian goods.

It is worth recalling that Longjiang No.1 Warehouse was opened in Suifenhe in November 2024 by Tianfusheng International Logistics Company. Suifenhe City Hall intends to use this warehouse to establish cooperative relationships with Russian goods suppliers, relevant distributors and traders, as well as e-commerce workers throughout China, so as to enhance Suifenhe's influence as a collection and distribution center for Russian-made goods. -0-

In addition, a Kuala Lumpur-Ordos flight is planned to be launched in late August, which will be operated 10 times.

The Ordos City Culture and Tourism Office led representatives of key tourist attractions and travel agencies to Seoul, South Korea, and Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, to conduct promotional activities for cultural tourism and actively establish contacts with overseas tourism associations and agencies to expand the inbound tourism market. At the same time, work is underway to create unique tourism products, and several high-quality tourist routes combining the steppe atmosphere, desert recreation, and folklore traditions are being developed. Key tourist sites actively provide customized services such as butler service, foreign language tours, and customized itineraries to attract international tourists. In addition, service measures have been strengthened to ensure that passengers on international flights can quickly clear customs. POS terminals for card payments abroad have been widely introduced at key tourist sites, and currency exchange offices have been opened.

TEHRAN, Aug. 11 (Xinhua) — The deputy director general of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) will visit Iran on Monday, the semi-official Tasnim news agency reported on Sunday, citing Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi.

According to the report, the Foreign Minister made the statement while speaking to journalists on the sidelines of a cabinet meeting.

A. Araghchi stressed that the purpose of the visit will be negotiations between Iran and the agency, noting that Iran has already provided the IAEA with the necessary clarifications regarding the new framework for bilateral cooperation in connection with the law on the suspension of cooperation adopted by the country's parliament and Constitutional Council at the end of June.

He stressed that no inspections or visits to Iranian nuclear facilities were planned during the IAEA deputy director general's visit, saying: "We have not yet reached a new agreement and cooperation will not begin."

Iran decided to suspend cooperation with the IAEA after the Israeli-American attacks on its nuclear facilities and the killing of Iranian nuclear scientists by Israel in June. Iran said it would stick to the decision unless the safety of its nuclear facilities and scientists was ensured.

Earlier, the semi-official Fars news agency reported that Massimo Aparo, deputy director general and head of the IAEA secretariat's Department of Safeguards, would visit Iran. -0-

HOHHOT, Aug. 11 (Xinhua) — The carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) project in the Bayan oil field in Bayan City, north China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, has injected over 70,000 tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) into oil reservoirs.

This marked the establishment of a large-scale CO2 utilization and storage base in Inner Mongolia, the Bayan Nur city government said.

The Bayan oil field has over 300 production wells with deep crude oil deposits. For a long time, the water injection method was used to extract oil, in which water is pumped into oil formations to displace oil to production wells. The oil recovery rate with this method was about 20 percent.

In order to save water and reduce carbon emissions, the field began exploring the possibility of using CO2 to extract oil in 2020. According to Yang Xuesong, chief geologist at the Bayan Oilfield Exploration and Development Branch, the CCUS project has increased the oil recovery rate at the field to about 45 percent.

CCUS is a new technological approach to the efficient low-carbon development of fossil energy. As a technological measure to counteract global warming, CCUS involves storing or utilizing captured CO2, thereby reducing carbon emissions. China is committed to achieving the goals of peaking carbon emissions by 2030 and achieving carbon neutrality by 2060.

In recent years, CCUS technology has made significant progress in China. According to the national carbon capture roadmap released late last year, 126 CCUS projects have been put into operation across the country, an increase of 77 compared to 2020.

In May this year, China's first offshore CCUS project began operations in the Pearl River Estuary Basin in the south of the country. The project, located on the Enping 15-1 platform, is designed to capture associated carbon dioxide generated during oil field development, then purify and inject it into a supercritical state. The treated carbon dioxide is then injected into underground oil reservoirs. Such technologies can increase oil production and capture carbon at the same time. -0-

JERUSALEM, Aug. 11 (Xinhua) — The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) on Sunday struck a tent at the entrance to the Al-Shifa hospital in Gaza City where four reporters from Qatar's Al Jazeera television channel were staying, the channel and medical sources in Gaza reported.

Al Jazeera reports that the Israeli strike killed its journalists Anas al-Sharif and Mohammed Kreika, as well as cameramen Ibrahim Zaher and Mohammed Noufal.

Al-Shifa Hospital Director Mohammed Abu Silmiya told Xinhua that five Palestinians were killed in the Israeli strike.

The Israeli army struck the journalists' tent directly, killing four, Palestinian Civil Defense sources said. The fifth victim remained unidentified because his body was "blown to pieces."

The IDF later stated that A. al-Sharif was killed in Gaza City because of his ties to Hamas.

“A. al-Sharif led a terrorist cell within the Hamas terrorist organization and was responsible for firing rockets at Israeli civilians and IDF soldiers,” the Israeli army said in a statement.

The documents found, including “personnel lists, terrorist training course lists, telephone directories and salary documents,” link the journalist to Hamas, the statement added.

Citing Gaza-based writer and analyst Mohammed Shehada, Al Jazeera reported that “there is no evidence of al-Sharif’s involvement in the fighting.”

Shortly before his death, A. al-Sharif posted a video on his X social media page showing the Gaza night sky tinted red by the bombings, and the sounds of explosions. “Non-stopping bombings,” he wrote. “For two hours now, the Israeli aggression in Gaza City has only intensified.” –0–
