New Paris fire: Chinese embassy on fire.

Few details. Posts came online in the last 20 minutes.

"THE CHINESE embassy in Paris is on fire, with large billows of smoke rising from the roof.
Firefighters have rushed to the building in Rue Washington.

Locals are being urged to avoid the area while emergency services fight the flames."

They seem to have an issue with fires starting on the roofs of buildings.

If intentional, the perpetrators either knew it was a 'former' and thus a symbolic sign or, like most criminals...they were too stupid to do any intel work.
