#US Intel agencies scour reams of genetic data from #Wuhan lab in Covid origins hunt
//US intelligence agencies are digging through a treasure trove of genetic data that could be key to uncovering the origins of the coronavirus -- as soon as they can decipher it.
This giant catalog of information contains genetic blueprints drawn from virus samples studied at the lab in Wuhan, China which some officials believe may have been the source of the Covid-19 outbreak, multiple people familiar with the matter tell CNN...
Officials conducting the 90-day review hope this information will help answer the question of how the virus jumped from animals to humans. Unlocking that mystery is essential to ultimately determining whether Covid-19 leaked from the lab or was transmitted to humans from animals in the wild...
Investigators both inside and outside the government have long sought genetic data from 22,000 virus samples that were being studied at the Wuhan Institute of Virology. That data was removed from the internet by Chinese officials in September 2019, and China has since refused to turn over this and other raw data on early coronavirus cases to the World Health Organization and the US.
The question for investigators is whether the WIV or other labs in China possessed virus samples or other contextual information that could help them trace the coronavirus' evolutionary history.
For now, senior intelligence officials still say that they are genuinely split between the two prevailing theories on the pandemic's origins, or some combination of both scenarios. CNN reported last month that senior Biden administration officials overseeing the 90-day review now believe the theory that the virus accidentally escaped from a lab in Wuhan is at least as credible as the possibility that it emerged naturally in the wild -- a dramatic shift from a year ago, when Democrats publicly downplayed the so-called lab leak theory.//

#Map showing the missiles fired by China towards Taiwan
As of August 4, 2022, according to the Defence Ministry of Taiwan, China has launched 11 Dongfeng ballistic missiles into waters near the northern, southern and eastern coasts of Taiwan, following U.S. house speaker #NancyPelosi's visit to Taiwan.

One day ago on August 3, Japan's #DefenceMinistry also reported 9 ballistic missiles fired by China.
The image shows the trajectory and the landing location of the 9 ballistic missiles (see numbers) reported by Japan's Defence Ministry. The area in red indicated the affected territory in August 2022, while in grey was the area affected by China during the 1995-1996 cross-straits crisis.
Among them, 9 missiles were said to have landed in Japan’s exclusive economic zone (#EEZ), east of Taiwan, and 4 have flown over #Taiwan (see missiles no. 6-9 on the map)
