Summary

Dhundup Gyalpo, who serves as the Dalai Lama's envoy to South Africa, has been targeted for the second time in three months. Observers view the incident as a continuing effort by the Chinese government to suppress Tibetan activists globally. The perpetrator threw petrol bombs at his office and home located in Centurion, which resulted in significant destruction.
