Panic In China As Millions Face Hunger After Being Forced Inside In Strict Covid Lockdown (Update)

Express: 'I'm starving to death!' Panic in China as millions forced inside in strict Covid lockdown 

RESIDENTS in the locked down city of Xi'an have claimed they risk starvation as they contend with China's zero-Covid policy. 

The city, which is home to the famous Terracotta Warriors, is the centre of the largest coronavirus outbreak in China since the original epicentre in Wuhan.
