Failed to extract/test .bz2 of Chinese Wikipedia
A free file archiver for extremely high compression

I am in dismay, cannot extract with 7z v19.00 64bit (both console and GUI) this ~2GB file:
https://dumps.wikimedia.org/zhwiki/20210620/zhwiki-20210620-pages-articles.xml.bz2
After downloading I checked the sha1 sum, and it is as it should:
18ed734af425d57088fed4bd8b809ac37e8b0f1c zhwiki-20210620-pages-articles.xml.bz2
The list of correct sha1 sums is here:

What causes this?
please try latest 21.02 alpha.
