The Muslims Are Restless
I'm quite sure that "knife" is a fucking sword. Yeah, but whatever, huh?
A knife attack orchestrated by alleged “separatists” at a coal mine in northwestern China’s troubled Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region has resulted in at least 40 casualties, including the deaths of five police officers, and several suspects are believed to be on the run, according to local security officials.The attack began at around 3:00 a.m. on Sept. 18 when a group of knife-wielding suspects set upon security guards at the Sogan Colliery in Aksu (in Chinese, Akesu) prefecture’s Bay (Baicheng) county, Jamal Eysa, the chief of state security police at a neighboring mine in the county seat told RFA’s Uyghur Service Monday.“The attack started at security gate of the colliery, which was watched by some 20 security guards at the time,” he said.“The residence of the colliery owner was the second target and, at the end, [the suspects] attacked police as they approached the area to control the situation.”Eysa said he received a phone call from the mayor of Bay township later that day ordering him to patrol area streets and prepare for a potential attack against the Bay Colliery where he is stationed, around 20 kilometers (12 miles) away from the Sogan Colliery in Terek township.

Good point. Again, though, I really doubt they used knives.
