Someone on a Chinese forum monitoring radio signals claimed that the Chang'e 5 lander ascent stage has already made a controlled impact on the Moon. No official confirmation yet.

I just translated the thread. Assuming the translation isn't mucked up I give this report little credibility.
Yeah, the one who posted it said that he/she wanted to keep the source anonymous. Anyway the ascent stage should still be sending signals if it's still in lumar orbit.
