B Raman: Explosive situation in Xinjiang

From the Asia Times Online: “The China Daily reported on January 22 that 13 persons were killed and 18 others injured in two separate explosions in China’s Xinjiang Uighur Autonomous Region, coinciding with the Eid-al-Adha religious festival.

In the first incident, nine passengers were killed instantaneously and two others later died after an explosion on January 20 in a minibus carrying 18 people at the Dushanzi overpass in Kuitun, in the Yili Kazakh Autonomous Prefecture. The place where the explosion took place is about 200 kilometers from the Kazakhstan border. Most of the victims were reportedly ethnic minorities (Uighurs?) and not Han Chinese.”
