The Embassy of the People's Republic of China in the State of Israel (;) is the official diplomatic mission of the People's Republic of China to the State of Israel, located in Tel Aviv. The embassy was opened in 1992, and the current ambassador is Run Cai.
The Chinese Embassy in Israel was established on September 15, 1989 as the Tel Aviv office of the China International Travel Service, which received official status on February 1, 1990. On January 24, 1992, Israel and China established full diplomatic relations, and on February 9, Tang Zhenqi, the manager of the office, became China's ambassador to Israel.[1]
On May 17, 2020, China's ambassador to Israel, Du Wei, was found dead in his apartment in Herzliya Pituah. There were no signs of violence, and the cause of death appears to be cardiac arrest.[2] His death led to some conspiracy theories, but none were verified.[3]
On December 7, 2022, a Spanish human rights organization called Safeguard Defenders claimed that a covert representative was operating in the embassy without the knowledge of the Israeli authorities. Officials in the Prime Minister's Office said that the issue is under review.[4]
