Revealed: online campaign urged far right to attack China’s opponents in UK

Chinese cybersecurity networks have been increasingly leveraging social media to target overseas activists, particularly in Hong Kong, by spreading threatening messages that allege personal grievances or incite violence. Activists like Finn Lau have publicly reported receiving direct threats online, with some experiencing violent acts despite lacking formal legal charges. China has denied any wrongdoing and emphasized respect for British sovereignty. Meanwhile, individuals in the UK are growing cautious of such tactics, though limited international action has been taken against China over these incidents.
