He assumed his Israeli post in February 2020, with an initial two-week quarantine due to the coronavirus pandemic. He submitted his credentials to Israeli President Reuven Rivlin virtually due to the pandemic.

Du was found dead in his Herzliya apartment on 17 May 2020. His death came in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic, and a few days after US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo's visit to Israel, during which he assailed China and tried to pressure Israel to curb Chinese investments. These circumstances have led to various conspiracy theories about the cause of his death.

Du served as the Chinese ambassador to Ukraine during 2016–2020. During his tenure in Ukraine, he met with Ukrainian Foreign Affairs Minister Vadym Prystaiko in an effort to expand the relationship between the two countries. He was responsible for a technical assistance program in which the Chinese government gave special equipment to the State Emergency Services in Ukraine. He was also involved in negotiations following a blocked take-over of Ukrainian defense company Motor Sich by a Chinese company.
