Knife-wielding terror gang attack train station in China killing 33

A knife-wielding terror gang, consisting of eight
men and two women, attacked people at a
Chinese Railway station on Friday February 28th,
killing at least 33 people and injuring 143 others,
according to state TV.
The gang launched the horrific attack at Kunming
railway station in Yunnan province at around 9pm
local time on Friday, in what the Chinese
government have described as 'an organised,
premeditated, violent terrorist attack'. Four of the
attackers were killed by police.
Photos which were posted online by survivors
who took photos of the carnage, showed dead
bodies, pools of blood and abandoned luggage
scattered across the terminal floor after the
attack.
With 33 dead, this attack is one of the deadliest in
recent Chinese history. Continue to see the
photos but it's very graphic. *viewer discretion
advised*
The Chinese government have blamed the attack
on militants from the remote far western region of
Xinjiang, which is home to tensions between the
government and Muslim separatists, Xinhua News
Agency reports.
'Evidence at the crime scene showed that
the Kunming Railway Station terrorist attack
was carried out by Xinjiang separatist
forces.'
