United against terrorism

There is never any justification for the killing of innocent people on any grounds and at any time.

That's why the ruthless, violent assaults that killed 29 and injured more than 130 in Kunming on Saturday evening can arouse in us nothing but the greatest indignation towards the terrorists who have committed such crime and those behind them, while our deepest condolences go to those who have suffered as a result of the attack.

The rampage took place in the railway station and passengers were caught unawares. Many of those who died did not even know what happened before they were hacked and stabbed to death by the murderers, who were armed with long knives.
