Two Killed in Knife Attack at Chinese Primary School
At least two people were killed and 10 injured after a knife-wielding woman attacked a primary school in Jiangxi province in China on Monday. The suspect, a 45-year-old woman named Pan, used a fruit knife during the attack at Mingde elementary school in the town of Wenfang in Guixi.
The school was evacuated following the incident, leaving parents in shock and fearful due to lack of communication from the school. Four of the injured suffered non-life-threatening injuries, while the others suffered minor injuries.
This is not the first knife attack in China, with several incidents reported in the past year. In one case, a man with a history of mental illness killed two people and injured seven at a residential complex in Yunnan province, while in another, six people, including children, were fatally stabbed at a kindergarten in Guangdong province.
Incidents like these highlight the need for improved security measures and mental health support in China to prevent such tragedies in the future.
