Chinese Communist Party leader Xi Jinping has replaced the Commander of the country's rocket corps, which controls China's nuclear missiles. Wang Houbin has been appointed as the new commander, while his predecessor Li Yuchao is reportedly under investigation. The move is seen as a confirmation of reports that there were issues with the former leadership of the Rocket Force. The investigation is said to be related to loyalty and carrying out President Xi's orders rather than corruption. The Rocket Force plays a crucial role in China's military pressure on Taiwan.
