Violence erupted on 28 July 2014 in Yarkand County (officially spelled Yarkant) of Kashgar Prefecture, Xinjiang, China, and lasted for several days, as Chinese police quelled the local unrest. The official death toll listed 96 fatalities: 59 alleged attackers and 37 bystanders (35 Han and 2 Uyghurs). The World Uyghur Congress claimed 2,000 people died, while the Hong Kong–based Apple Daily gave an estimate of 3,000 to 5,000 dead, citing unnamed sources.
