In the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region of China, there has been a terrorist attack on the office of the Communist Party. As a result, two people were killed, three were injured. The attackers were neutralized by police.

The Uighur factor

The Uighur factor is one of the strongest centers of destabilization in China. Beijing is working hard to assimilate Muslim Uighurs. For example, some time ago, the resettlement of the Uighurs in different regions and provinces of the country was carried out. But it has brought only partial results, because it is beneficial to destabilize by certain forces outside China that support and fund terrorist groups, and who advocates for the creation of Turkestan.

The failure of the Hong Kong project

In recent years, anti-Chinese activity has been significantly enhanced. The situation in Hong Kong was quite serious after the scandals with the opposition. However, it was transferred to the Chinese intelligence agencies in a fairly quiet channel, after which the activation of Taiwanstarted. Nevertheless, without outside support Taiwan is not a serious destabilizing factor. Perhaps that is why the Uighurs were involved in the current situation.
