China Removes Israel From Official Map, Reaffirms Support for Palestine
May 9, 2026
WATCH: Questions and speculation have emerged online after users noticed that the name “Israel” appeared absent or less visible on some Chinese digital map services, while labels for Palestine and neighboring countries remained visible.
The issue has fueled debate on social media, with some interpreting it as a political message amid the ongoing war in Gaza and growing international divisions over the conflict. However, there has been no official statement from the Chinese government or major map providers confirming that the change was made as an act of support for Palestine.
China has repeatedly called for a ceasefire in Gaza and voiced support for Palestinian statehood, while maintaining diplomatic relations with Israel.
