Anyone can add photos and links about the Urumqi riots to this page.

Note that the photos (warning, some are graphic) below have been circulating on the chinese internet, and sources have not been verified. I have saved them here so that they aren't deleted by chinese censors. Do your research using the links below, and proceed cautiously if you republish them.

  • Text message being forwarded around Urumqi on july 6 (translated)

    "Citywide bulletin: Last nights (Sunday) riots saw over 800 injured, 146 dead, 400 cars and over 50,000 sq. m. looted & burned."

    "The situation is very dangerous, everyone please do not go outside & mind your safety, but word is things will return to normal in 3 days"

    "Tonight (Monday night) will be a massive series of arrests and no doubt resistance. Be careful - a concerned individual"

    MP3 messages can also be left at this page by calling 646-402-5689 x 87169. I'm not sure that anyone will use it from within Xinjiang, but it might come in handy if phone service comes back.
