Ürümqi, March 2 (Xinhua) — On March 1, the Horgos Port of Xinjiang, northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, launched its first express border inspection channel at all Xinjiang vehicle ports. This measure, primarily used for commercial vehicle exports, aims to improve the efficiency of entry and exit inspections of drivers.

Early Sunday morning, Ma Kui, driving a commercial vehicle bound for export, prepared to cross the Khorgos checkpoint through this express entry channel. He faced the inspection equipment, then completed the passport scanning and biodata verification procedures. The boom of the barrier in the traffic lane quickly rose, signaling his unhindered passage through border control.

"The whole process went very smoothly. Previously, all border control formalities were handled by officers at the counter. Now I just scan my passport, look at the device, and leave my fingerprints. Everything was quick and very convenient," he said.

Khorgos is China's largest land port for commercial vehicle exports. Every day, over 1,000 commercial vehicles are transported through Khorgos to countries such as Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, cleared through customs. By the end of 2025, 450,000 vehicles were exported through the Khorgos border crossing, a 6.9 percent increase over 2024 and a historical high.

The express pass channel is reportedly based on the existing one-stop-shop screening system, with the addition of rapid screening equipment. Previously, drivers had to exit their vehicles and approach a service counter to join a security line; now, they can complete all screening procedures in one go, significantly increasing the efficiency of border control.

After the channel is put into operation, the Khorgos border service will continue to monitor its operation in real time, continuously optimize the system's functionality, and make every effort to ensure uninterrupted border control. -0-

BEIJING, March 2 (Xinhua) — China's cumulative box office revenue since the beginning of 2026 has reached more than 10 billion yuan (about 1.44 billion U.S. dollars), according to data from Maoyan, one of the country's largest online ticketing platforms.

According to data, as of approximately 7:00 p.m. Sunday, the country's total box office revenue since the beginning of this year had exceeded 10 billion yuan.

During the reporting period, approximately 225 million tickets were sold in cinemas across the country, with the total number of film screenings exceeding 26.1 million.

As previously reported by the State Film Administration of the People's Republic of China, during the Spring Festival holiday (Chinese New Year), which ran from February 15 to 23, total box office receipts amounted to more than 5.75 billion yuan.

Maoyan also reported a noticeable change in the demographic structure of moviegoers this year: people under 25 years old accounted for 27.61 percent of all moviegoers, compared to 23.53 percent in the same period last year.

According to data, the film market's strong performance has been supported by lower ticket prices. According to Taopiaopiao, another major ticketing platform, the average movie ticket price in January-February 2026 was 42 yuan, compared to 50 yuan for the same period in 2025. The average ticket price during the Spring Festival holiday decreased by 6 percent compared to the same period last year.

The long-awaited draft environmental code will soon be submitted to the 4th session of the 14th National People's Congress. It will be China's second legislative code after the Civil Code, marking the country's entry into an era of "codification" and environmental protection through law.

The development of the code is an important symbolic stage in the construction of a state governed by the rule of law. If previous environmental laws can be compared to scattered "pearls," then codification is the "thread" that gathers them into an exquisite "necklace," adorning it with new gems.

China prioritizes environmental protection, viewing the construction of an ecological civilization as a fundamental plan for the sustainable development of the Chinese nation. Currently, a comprehensive environmental system has been established, comprising more than 30 laws, over 100 administrative regulations, over 1,000 local regulations, and numerous national environmental standards. The development of this code will strengthen the systemic nature, integrity, and consistency of China's environmental legislation.

The adoption of the Environmental Code in the first year of the 15th Five-Year Plan will contribute to the further improvement of the ecological civilization system and lay a systematic, orderly, and authoritative legal foundation for building a beautiful China where man and nature coexist in harmony.

The code not only draws on Chinese practice but also takes into account global environmental challenges. The draft code includes provisions on international cooperation in green and low-carbon development, active participation and leadership in the global green transition, and multilateral and bilateral international cooperation and exchanges to combat climate change. All of this reflects a global approach to codification, offers unique Chinese solutions for global environmental governance, and serves as a model for global codification.

Jerusalem, March 1 (Xinhua) — The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) announced on Sunday that it carried out a series of massive airstrikes on central command posts in Tehran. More than 100 fighter jets were involved in the operation, which aimed to destroy key elements of Iran's military infrastructure.

IDF spokesman Efi Defrin, speaking at a press briefing, said the strikes hit numerous Iranian headquarters, including facilities affiliated with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), intelligence units, air force command centers, and internal security forces. According to the Israeli military, these facilities, which Israel claims have coordinated attacks on the Jewish state and other countries for decades, were "destroyed."

E. Defrin added that the IDF also carried out more than 30 strikes on Iranian ballistic missile launch and storage sites and air defense systems.

"The message to Iran is clear: we can reach any target," an Israeli army spokesman emphasized, noting that hundreds of Israeli military aircraft continue to operate in Iranian airspace to detect missile launchers and other targets. According to E. Defrin, approximately 60 launch sites have been hit so far, each of which could launch multiple missiles. –0–

Baghdad, March 1 (Xinhua) — An Iraqi Shiite militant group on Sunday claimed responsibility for missile and drone attacks on military bases in Erbil province of the semi-autonomous Kurdistan region in northern Iraq where US forces are stationed.

In two separate statements, a pro-Iranian group calling itself Saraya Awliya al-Dam (Guardians of the Blood Units) and affiliated with Iraqi armed groups within the Islamic Resistance in Iraq (IRI), said the attacks were carried out in retaliation for the assassination of Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and in solidarity with Tehran.

Iranian state media confirmed on Sunday that Khamenei was killed in joint US-Israeli attacks the day before.

According to a Kurdish security source, air defense systems at a military base near Erbil International Airport intercepted several unmanned aerial vehicles on Sunday evening. There have been no reports of casualties or material damage.
