BEIJING: A staffer at the Israeli embassy in Beijing was assaulted on Friday and was hospitalised in stable condition, Israel’s foreign ministry said, and Chinese police said a suspect had been arrested.
The attack did not occur within the embassy compound itself, the Israeli foreign ministry said, which is just one embassy over from that of the United States and in an area with a number of other embassies and a heavy police presence.
The suspect was a foreign worker, aged 53, who was engaged in a small commodities business in Beijing, police said in a statement.
