Uighur activists say they have documented nearly 500 camps and prisons run by China to detain members of the ethnic group, alleging that Beijing could be holding far more than the commonly cited figure of one million people

.

Researching imagery from Google Earth, the group said it also spotted 209 suspected prisons and 74 suspected labour camps for which it would share details later."In large part, these have not been previously identified, so we could be talking about far greater numbers" of people detained, said Kyle Olbert, the director of operations for the movement.

Rights advocates have generally estimated that China is detaining more than one million Uighurs and members of other predominantly Muslim Turkic ethnicities.But Randall Schriver, the top Pentagon official for Asia, said in May the figure was"likely closer to three million citizens" - an extraordinary number in a region of some 20 million people.

He said that the group tried to verify the nature of each site with on-the-ground accounts but declined to give greater detail, citing the need to protect sources.China's foreign ministry said the allegations were"baseless."

Hillary Clinton says male leaders are 'scared' of Greta ThunbergHilary Clinton says teen climate activist Greta Thunberg has male leaders around the world 'scared'. Rack off you old soak Hilary Clinton is correct. Greta Thunberg is now the most powerful teenager on the planet. They best start paying attention to her. Wait until Hilary wraps her head around the anti-capitalist implications of the climate movement. Then she'll be 'scared' too.
