Military personnel have evacuated 350 people from Xinjiang's Akto County, hit by a 6.7-magnitude earthquake on Friday.

More than 20 army staff from the nearby military regiment arrived immediately after the quake, the regiment said Sunday in a statement. Another 45 staff joined the rescue team on Saturday and went to a village close to the epicenter with tents, food and medicine.

The regiment also sent oxygen and quilts to the worst-hit areas. More than 120 militia helped residents clear the snow and transfer their property.

One person died in the quake. Sections of railway in southern Xinjiang have also been temporarily closed.

Hundreds of aftershocks were monitored by the China Earthquake Networks Center, with the largest recorded at a magnitude of 5.0.

BBC is the most prominent "truth manufacturer" news machine in UK as well as one of the oldest news center in the Old Continent, though it's funded by the UK gov I cannot call it as solely the mouthpiece of London because it's alleged that the very influential Rothschild family also has its deep interests in this aging broadcast company.

Tricky play with the words.

The Guardian reporting quoted above is even more pathetic. In the second paragraph right after the introduction, they seem to ascribe the sporadic acts of terrorism to some grievances.

It is same as calling the ISIS "the angry youth."

So long as terrorism does not hit their own interests, Western press will continue to be terrorist apologists and white washers.

Too bad overwhelming amount of those sponsors of terrorism is let operate in China, including Reuters.

That's what western media will always do, writing what the west public wants to read - China is bad bad bad - so it's very normal. Yes it will last forever, till the end of time, we know it, no surprise.

Communist Party office in the far west region of Xinjiang in an attack that killed one person and injured three others.

The report in Tianshan Net, a news portal run by Communist Party officials in Xinjiang, says the incident happened Wednesday afternoon in Moyu county.

It says that four attackers drove vehicles into the county's Communist Party courtyard and detonated homemade explosives, killing one person and injuring three others. It says police shot the four dead at the scene and called it a “terrorist attack”.

The region of Xinjiang has seen violence against civilians in recent years that authorities have blamed on radicals among the mostly Muslim Uighur ethnic minority seeking independence from Beijing.

All that really matters is that the terror attack was thwarted and that all four Uighur terrorists were liquidated by the Chinese police with little or no casualties.

The Chinese are very effective in preventing Uighur terrorists from inflicting substantial losses. In fact, China, specifically Xinjiang, is the only place in the world where the number of terrorists killed exceeds the number of victims of terror attacks. This goes to show that China has one of the best and most efficient counterinsurgency and counterterrorism doctrines in the world.
