Photos and video footage in Chinese social media showed the man armed with a long dagger prowling in a privately-run school in Lianjiang City of South China\u2019s Guangdong province to attack the victims.<\/p>\n
According to witness accounts published by the official media outlets, the victims included one teacher, two parents and three children. One person was also injured in the attack.<\/p>\n
The 25-year-old suspect, surnamed Wu, is a local resident who apparently carried out the attack to seek revenge against one of the victims for injuring his child in a car accident and declined to pay compensation, state-run Global Times reported.<\/p>\n
The assailant was seeking revenge, which could be the cause of the murder, the report said.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\nTargeted attacks on children have come under the spotlight in recent months as merely two weeks before Monday\u2019s tragic incident, an 8-year-old boy was brutally beaten to death by a martial arts coach on June 26, Global Times report said.<\/p>\n
The boy had enrolled in the martial arts training institution on June 10 and lost his life eight days later.<\/p>\n
As knife attacks have become a pattern, China\u2019s Ministry of Education advised authorities to \u201ceffectively strengthen the safety of primary and secondary school and kindergarten campuses\u201d.<\/p>\n
It asked all schools in the country to \u201cdeeply understand the extreme importance of maintaining school safety and student safety\u201d and ensure police are at school entrances during \u201cimportant times\u201d.<\/p>\n
Social revenge attacks by disgruntled elements including knife attacks on kindergarten schools in China are a common occurrence.<\/p>\n
Such attacks were mostly attributed by police to disgruntled or mentally deranged people who have unaddressed grievances.<\/p>\n
About 17 knife attacks have been reported in schools and other educational institutions since 2010, and ten of them took place between 2018 and 2023.<\/p>\n
The official media also, for some time, blacked out knife attack reports fearing copycat attacks.<\/p>\n
In recent years, there have been several vicious incidents in primary and secondary schools in China.<\/p>\n
In June, police in Beijing\u2019s Haidian district arrested a 26-year-old man who drove a car onto a high school campus after a rare hostage-taking incident in the capital, during which one student was wounded.<\/p>\n
In April 2021, two children were killed and 18 others wounded in a knife attack at a kindergarten in the southern region of Guangxi.<\/p>\n
In June 2018, a 29-year-old man used a knife to kill two primary school students in Shanghai. The killer was executed in December 2020, the Hong Kong-based South China Morning Post reported.<\/p>\n
