17:29Now PlayingChinese leader Xi Jinping has waged a brutal campaign against foreign influence and "unapproved religion" since 2015, part of a push to 'Sinicise' faith, which included detaining over a million Muslims in the Xinjiang region. China's suppression has hit the nation's tiny congregation of Jews, whose ancestors settled over a millennium ago along the Yellow River in Kaifeng. The crackdown has now spread to the roughly 1,000 people in Kaifeng who claim Jewish heritage, of which only about 100 practicing Jews. The community has survived without a rabbi for more than 150 years. "It's government policy – China doesn't want to recognize us as Jews," one anonymous man disclosed to the Telegraph. "Their goal is to make sure the next generation doesn't have any Jewish identity." The government has paved over synagogue ruins, installed cameras at historic Jewish landmarks, and Hebrew schools established by foreign nationals have been forced to close.
