Witness caught up in a deadly mass stabbing in China have spoken of the horror as knife-wielding "terrorists" stormed a train station, leaving 33 dead and more than 100 injured.

Victims described attackers dressed in black bursting into the station in the southwestern province of Yunnan and slashing indiscriminately.

Liu Chen, a 19-year-old student, was at the station with a friend when the attacks occurred. "At first I thought it was just someone fighting, but then I saw blood and heard people scream, and I just ran," Liu told China Daily.

After being told her husband was killed in the attack, Chen Guizhen, 50, was holding her husband's blood-soaked ID card in her hands. "I found his ID card on his body. I can't believe he has just left me," she said. "Why are the terrorists so cruel?" she cried.

The attack left at least 33 dead and more than 130 wounded, Xinhua news agency reported..

Separatists from China's northwest region of Xinjiang orchestrated the attack according to the city government.

It said evidence from the scene of the attack late Saturday in Kunming by a group of knife-wielding people pointed to separatists from the western province of Xinjiang, a vast region home to the mostly-Muslim Uighur minority.

Chinese President Xi Jinping urged law enforcement to investigate the case, vowing to take all efforts to hunt down and punish the terrorists responsible within accordance with the law.

No one has a gun or anything. In China you have to have a permit to have a knife over a certain length, even for kitchen knives. At least that's my understanding.

He probably realized how trivial life is. No matter where you go you truly can never attain freedom.

But there was about 133 person there ,yet they couldn't do anything ?

If a bunch of people with knives come at you, instinct to most is to run away, not form a team with the rest who is present

A lot of people's first instinct is to run like hell, even more so if they just saw someone's body dropped lifeless to the floor. On top of that, there were 10 of them in a large group of people, the victims probably didn't even know who was who, or even knew how many there actually were.

Witness #1: There was like 20 of them!

Witness #2: There was 30!


You'd be surprise what people "see" when fear kicks in (well you'd be surprised of all the different stories you'd get even in the absence of fear lol). Some probably didn't want to get stabbed in the back while trying to help someone else, some were probably worried about their kids and loved ones, and was just worried about making it out of there.

Not only that, but trying to stop just one mad man swinging a knife (especially if it's long) can be more difficult than you think if you're not trained.

I am surprised because i have seen lots of these kind of groups("holding knifes)

But the people in the street take care of them rather quickly.

*Moves to where you are*

lol jk.

I noticed you said "holding knives". Do they have the intent to kill, or they just kinda give up when they see a crowd approaching them?

Gangs confronting eachother or a group of people provocating one another is still different than 10 lunatics slashing down every person that moves

Well i was also talking about "terrorists "

I mean you are lucky if terrorists were only holding knifes (usually they have guns and bombs) people can actually defend themselves in this situation .

I was just confused thats all .
