| Explosions in Xinjiang kill two |
| 2014-09-22 |
| Two people were killed and several more wounded in at least three explosions in China's western province of Xinjiang on Sunday, state media reported, but gave few details. The blasts came as China punished 17 regional officials and police "for being accountable" for a July 28 attack by masked militants that led to almost 100 deaths of police, officials and civilians, and for the subsequent killing of a pro-Beijing imam. A blast in Luntai county, on the northern edge of the Taklamakan desert in central Xinjiang, hit a shop in the county seat, while with two more explosions occurred in nearby townships on Sunday, a Communist Party news website said. The wording of the report suggested there were other explosions but it gave no details. It said, "At present, all the injured have been sent to hospital for full treatment, local social order is normal, and the cases are being investigated." |
