Terrible!

It should be excited for most of the people to receive and unseal online buying, but for a woman from Lishui, Zhejiang, China, she may not be happy with the parcel she received since they are not what she had ordered. 

The woman, surnamed Zhang, purchased a few boxes of healthcare products through the Internet, but when she got the parcel and torn off the packaging, she found a strong strange smell coming out of the box. She opened the foam box and saw a crocodile and lizard inside.

Zhang asked her husband to check if the address marked on the parcel correct. They found the details were right while they didn't understand why they got the two animals since what they bought should be some healthcare products. The couple could only call the police to handle the case.

Police arrived at the scene and had examinations to the two animals. A small piece of meat was also packed in the box. It's believed that the meat was the food for the reptiles. Both of animals were about one metre long and found dead already. The rotten smell has allegedly appeared at the spot. 

The inspection found the crocodile of a Siamese, which belongs to the artificial breeding species of national key protected terrestrial animal.

A tag was hanged on the tail of the crocodile, on which the logo and QR code of "Chinese Wildlife Management Special" is printed. The police found the breeding company through this tag.

The company claimed the mistake contributed to the courier company which misplaced the address of Ms. Zhang in the crocodile box. They stressed that the crocodile had still survived when it was sent out, but died because of the long distance of delivery.

Finally, the police believe that the breeding company and the courier company have no responsibility, and ask the courier company to treat the crocodile as a disposal.

Chinese foreign minister criticizes US role in Gaza talks during visit to Indonesia

JAKARTA, Indonesia (AP) — Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi attacked the United States for earlier blocking United Nations resolutions calling for a cease-fire in Gaza after a meeting with his counterpart in Indonesia.

The Chinese and Indonesian foreign ministers reiterated their countries' calls for an immediate and lasting cease-fire in Gaza after a meeting in Jakarta on Thursday, condemning the humanitarian costs of Israel's ongoing war against Hamas.

The U.S., together with Egypt and Qatar, brokered a brief cease-fire earlier in the war that included some swaps of hostages taken by Hamas and other militant groups in return for Palestinian prisoners held by Israel, and has sought to bring about a new deal.

But the U.S. vetoed a number of proposed U.N. Security Council cease-fire resolutions because they didn’t tie the calls directly to the release of Israel hostages or condemn Hamas’ attack that prompted the war before allowing a resolution to a pass with an abstention in late March.

The meeting took place on the second day of a six-day tour during which Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi will also visit Papua New Guinea and Cambodia.

Indonesia's Minister of Foreign Affairs Retno Marsudi told reporters that the two countries share the same view about the importance of a cease-fire and of resolving the Palestinian problem through a two-state solution.

Indonesia, the world's most populous Muslim-majority country, has long been a strong supporter of the Palestinians and does not recognize Israel.

“I am sure that China would use its influence to prevent escalation,” Marsudi said, adding that China and Indonesia "would also fully support Palestine’s membership in the U.N.”

Wang blamed the United States for holding up cease-fire resolutions at the U.N.

“The conflict in Gaza has lasted for half a year and caused a rare humanitarian tragedy in the 21st century. The United Nations Security Council responded to the call of the international community and continued to review the resolution draft on the cease-fire in Gaza, but it was repeatedly vetoed by the United States,” Wang told reporters.

American officials have argued that the cease-fire and hostage releases are linked, while Russia, China and many other council members favored unconditional calls for a cease-fire. China and Russia also vetoed one U.S.-backed cease-fire resolution, saying it was not strong enough.

Referring to the resolution that was approved by the Security Council in March, Wang said: “This time, the U.S. did not dare to stand in opposition to international morality and chose to abstain. However, the U.S. claimed that this resolution was not binding," Wang said. “In the eyes of the United States, international law seems to be a tool that can be used whenever it finds useful and discarded if it does not want to use it.”

The two ministers also discussed their countries' economic relationship and the South China Sea.

China is Indonesia’s largest trading partner, with the trade volume reaching more than $127 billion. China is also one of Indonesia's largest foreign investors, with investment flows of more than $7.4 billion in 2023.

Later Thursday, Wang also met Indonesian President Joko Widodo and president-elect Prabowo Subianto, who is currently defense minister.
