China purges Ma Xingrui, making him the third Politburo member removed since 2025 amid President Xi Jinping’s continuing anti-corruption campaign, according to reports. The announcement is presented as part of a broader effort that has targeted senior officials across the Communist Party, government, and military. Multiple outlets characterize the move as evidence of the campaign’s widening reach within China’s top leadership ranks. One report specifies that Ma Xingrui is the third Politburo member to be purged since 2025, while another notes that Xi’s long-running campaign has drawn in senior figures serving in party and state roles, as well as officials tied to the military. The reporting does not provide additional details in the supplied excerpts on the specific allegations against Ma Xingrui, the timeline of the investigation, or the procedural steps taken. Overall, the sources agree on the central points: Ma Xingrui is removed from the Politburo, the action follows at least two other similar senior purges earlier in 2025, and it fits within an ongoing, years-long anti-graft campaign associated with Xi Jinping.
