> China’s ‘patriotic’ crackdown on religion in an effort to ‘Sinicize’ their entire culture saw the construction of what they called “re-education” camps in Beijing. But the UN human rights committee and leaked photographs revealed what were really concentration camps where approximately one million Uighurs were being held in arbitrary detention.

That one million figure has been discussed to death, so I won't discuss it here. The camps are also definitely not in Beijing. The real irony here is that the photo is of the Japanese internment camps in the US from WWII.
