While mass violent crime remains uncommon in China due to stringent firearms regulations, the country has witnessed a series of knife attacks in recent years. Last August, a tragic incident in Yunnan resulted in two fatalities and seven injuries when an individual with a history of mental illness embarked on a stabbing spree.

Similarly, the preceding month saw a devastating kindergarten stabbing in Guangdong province, claiming six lives and leaving one person wounded. In a separate incident in August 2022, three individuals lost their lives, and six others sustained injuries during a knife attack at a kindergarten in Jiangxi province, underscoring the recurring challenges posed by such acts of violence within Chinese communities.
