    China closes a private Tibetan school in Qinghai province.

    According to Tibetan sources quoted by Radio Free Asia (RFA), Chinese officials in Qinghai province have shut down private schools, forcing some children to enroll in government schools. The move comes amid a regional drive by Chinese authorities to dismantle schools that promote Tibetan culture and provide Tibetan language education in classrooms.
