Chinese government TV CENSORS World Cup games to avoid showing fans who aren't wearing face masks as protests against country's ultra-tough Covid measures explode

 

• China has a Covid Zero policy which has large parts of the country in lockdown 
• Crowds are protesting after a fire killed 10 people in a locked down unit complex 
• Now it can be revealed CCTV is censoring crowd shots from the World Cup from reaching China so locals can't see unmasked fans having fun in Qatar 

 

Chinese football fans have been streamed a censored feed of the FIFA World Cup in Qatar as politicians desperately try to stop images of large, unmasked crowds reaching the local population as protests rage against harsh Covid measures.

 

FIFA has tightly controlled the vision showed from the World Cup and every nation gets the same feed - except China.

 

 A comparison of footage from the Cup shows that the China Central Television (CCTV) broadcasting company has been intercepting vision from the tournament and doctoring crowd shots by using a 30-second delay.

 

 

 

Vision showing maskless fans has been removed because while most of the world has moved on from pandemic lockdown measures, China still faces harsh restrictions under its Covid Zero policy.
