Chinese police said today they have broken up a terrorist cell that carried out lethal attacks in Xinjiang as the restive region braces for the one-year anniversary of deadly ethnic unrest. The announcement was made during a Beijing press conference that came just days ahead of the July 5 anniversary of deadly rioting in Xinjiang's capital, Urumqi, by the region's Muslim ethnic Uighurs. Public Security Bureau spokesman Wu Heping told reporters since 2008 this terror group planned and carried out many terror acts in Xinjiang, including an attack on police and border guards in Kashgar during the Olympics. The United States and the United Nations have listed the group as a terrorist organisation. Both Washington and Beijing say the group has received training and funding from Al-Qaeda, although some analysts dispute that.<br/>
