At least two attackers wielding knives reportedly attacked commuters at a railway station in the southern city of Guangzhou<\/a>\u00a0during the morning rush hour on Friday. At least nine people were injured. The police shot dead one suspect and arrested another.<\/p>\n

A knife attack at a rail station in Kunming last March left 31 dead<\/a> and 100 more injured. Three men were sentenced to death and one woman to life in prison for their involvement in the attack. All of the convicted\u00a0appear to be Uyghur<\/a>, based on their names. Another knife attack at a Guangzhou rail station last May left six injured<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Chinese government launched a yearlong “war on terror” last May<\/a> in the wake\u00a0of these and other violent incidents, including a 2013 Jeep crash in Tiananmen Square.<\/a>\u00a0Authorities allege that\u00a0many recent incidents of violence across China were carried out by\u00a0ethnic Uyghurs. The campaign, extended to the end of 2015<\/a>, focuses on security in Xinjiang, where most Uyghurs live. The “war on terror” has so far included increased restrictions on religious garb<\/a> and worship<\/a> in Xinjiang, which critics argue only feeds the impetus for violence<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Amid the crackdown, authorities have been strictly regulating the media narrative on violence<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The names and ethnicity of today’s assailants have not yet been released, but witnesses told the South China Morning Post that they appeared to be Uyghurs<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Since directives are sometimes communicated orally to journalists and editors, who then leak them online, the wording published here may not be exact.
