China seems to build an underground command bunker for its military leadership.
China is building a huge military base near Beijing.
US intelligence suspects that the base is supposed to be used as a command center during the war, reported Financial Times -leaf
The magazine published satellite images showing a construction site of about six square kilometers. It is located about 30 kilometers southwest of Beijing.
Satellite images show that the construction of a secret object began last year.
The pictures show deep trenches. The PhD speculates that they are supposed to build bomb shields.
In China’s carefully censored network, there is no information on a mysterious construction project.
The object is carefully guarded. It is forbidden to shoot the area and do not fly drons above the area.
Bigger than the pentagon
The site is almost ten times higher than the US Department of Defense Pentagon Command Center.
According to a Chinese expert interviewed by the FT, reinforced concrete and underground tunnels used in buildings indicate that the pictures may include China’s secret military destination.
– This fortress only serves one purpose. It is supposed to be a bunker for the day of judgment, says the researcher according to the FT.
Two representatives of the Taiwan Ministry of Defense also says they consider it possible that China is building a new command center near Beijing.
According to a US intelligence service representative to FT, the current headquarters of China’s Liberation Army in Beijing is quite new, but is not designed for wartime.
