I don’t know whether this had been flagged up previously. Obviously not able to bring japanese queens to our shores, but given a few million years our species might just manage hornet attacks…

I actually saw that happen last year against an Asian Hornets. I've also found the odd 'body' in a hive presumably killed by the same method. It's pretty impressive to watch.

Am pretty sure European bees are recorded doing this but just not to the extent.

That bee is Apis cerana. Many ways different animal than European bee.

One lady just taught beekeeping facebook, that Propolis made in the UK heals corona and all viruses.

I read, that cerana does not gather propolis.
