Residents have been advised to stay at or near home to be available for the community-level nucleic-acid screening.
They have been told that until they obtain a negative test result, they will not receive a “green” code on smartphone Covid-tracing apps
that nearly all people in China are now required to present when using public transport and in other situations.

China has stepped up its zero-tolerance Covid-19 strategy in the run-up to the Winter Olympics, which open on 4 February in Beijing.
The Chinese capital is 150km (90 miles) north-west of Tianjin and connected by a high-speed rail link that takes less than one hour.

Millions of people are being confined to their homes in Xi’an and Yuzhou, two other cities that are farther away but have larger outbreaks.
The city of Zhengzhou, a provincial capital 70km (40 miles) north of Yuzhou, is also conducting mass testing and closing schools starting Monday.

Been thinking again about the current ISS crew, both Americans and Russians aboard. If further escalation occurs then they will be ordered home. That would be a very obvious sign that events are taking a serious turn.

Schools are closed already, because all students have gone home to their families to celebrate Chinese New Year. Two cities are closed. I still don't need this smartphone app and are just sitting in the local bath-house among many Chinese from the neighbourhood.

I grew up during the Cold War, but I did not develop this strange Cold War mentality, because for me history ended, when we were occupied by US. All these spy movies fail to impress me, I just don't understand this strange "agent, double-agent, etc." thing. One reason for me being here in China is, that even some years ago, I expected a collaps in Europe and I want to sit it out here in the oldest existing empire, safe and sound. If the world goes down, so be it.

Russian troops are definitely on the move. as for a reason ...that is questionable. in any case this whole situation has a potential to escalate. in any case because of situation in kazahstan russian military is on higher alert status. this thing in kazahstan could be done by oligarchs in kazahstan who are mining bitcoin because they did not have enough electricity and came to great solution to hike the prices. if prices go up, there would be less consumption and more electricity for mining rigs. also, this had to be done with high participation from somebody where powerful inside the system of government in kazahstan

In any case, we (as a planet) are entering in the period of uncertainty

Karim Massimov, Kazakh former prime-minister, was arrested by security forces for treason.

Massimov was considered the right-hand man of the country's former president, Nazarbayev.

Also he was described as "close friend" by Hunter Biden:

https://nypost.com/2020/10/20/photo-biden-meets-hunters-alleged-partner-from-kazakhstan/

To summarize:

1. Russia views this as an attempted "color revolution" led by the West

2. This provocation risks escalating NATO-Russia conflict over Ukraine
