China's official Xinhua news agency reports several explosions in the northwestern region of Xinjiang, citing witnesses who said they saw flashes of fire and sporadic gunshots afterwards.
The incident occurred in the city of Kuqa, the capital of the predominantly Muslim region. Witnesses added that police have cordoned off the area and the military has moved in to intervene. No information on casualties was immediately available. An August 4 attack in Xinjiang killed 16 policemen.
