Driruに、大勢の最高60人のチベット人が最近の取締りにおいて拘留される地元のチベット人の釈放を要求して10月6日に集会の後、中国軍隊によって発砲されたあと、チベット人の多数は負傷しました。 ICTがこの緊張した状況をモニターし続けて、軍隊化は地域（チベット自治区にある）で劇的に増加しました。軍隊は配備されます、取締りはチベット人によって市民的不服従に続きます
Driruの10月6日の銃撃が、軍隊が家族と修道院に10月1日に中華人民共和国の国立Dayを祝うために中国の国旗を掲げることを強要する政府当局による失敗した試みの後、閉鎖される地域と学校に配備されたわずか数日後に起こりました。 少なくとも40人のチベット人は、共産党への忠節を実施する当局によるこの最新の試みにおいて拘留されました。
Troops open fire on Tibetans in escalating crisis in Nagchu
- At least 60 Tibetans were injured, some seriously, on October 6 in Driru after Chinese troops opened fire on Tibetans calling for the release of a local Tibetan who had objected to orders from a ‘patriotic education’ work team prior to China’s National Day on October 1.
- The incident followed a crackdown on September 29 in Driru (Chinese: Biru), County in Nagchu (Ch: Naqu) Prefecture in the Tibet Autonomous Region, after a failed attempt by the authorities to compel families and monasteries in the area to raise Chinese national flags to mark the founding anniversary of the People’s Republic of China. More than 40 people were detained and many more seriously injured as a result of severe beatings from security forces.
- Tsering Gyaltsen, who is in his twenties, was named by sources as being one of those seriously injured after torture in detention after police apparently singled him out as a ‘ringleader’ of the peaceful expressions of dissent. Despite his serious condition, he was prevented from receiving medical treatment for several days. He is now in hospital in Lhasa in critical condition. Other Tibetans injured by beatings or torture were unable to travel for medical treatment due to restrictions on movement in the area.
- Militarisation has been dramatically stepped up in the Driru area after resistance to work teams sent as part of an intensified drive across the Tibet Autonomous Region to enforce loyalty to the Chinese Communist Party. Tibetans in Driru are still in danger as the authorities enforce an even more intense lockdown than before, cutting communications with the area. A notice has been disseminated in Lhasa to warn people from the county not to return there at present, according to exile Tibetan sources.
Militarization escalates in Nagchu, Tibet, after Tibetans resist raising Chinese flag
- Troop presence has been stepped up in Nagchu and local schools closed following a failed attempt by the authorities to compel families and monasteries in the area to raise Chinese national flags to mark the founding anniversary of the People’s Republic of China on October 1.
- New images show troops enforcing a lockdown in Driru (Chinese: Biru) county after people in two villages displayed prayer flags and refused to raise the Chinese flag for China’s National Day. According to Tibetan sources, local schoolchildren in the area did not attend performances for the celebration of National Day. Some schools in the area have now been closed, and Radio Free Asia reports that Mowa township, where Tibetans had refused to display the flag, has been turned into “a military camp”.
- Attempts by the Chinese authorities to force Tibetans to display the Chinese flag on their homes and in monasteries have been met with determined resistance and have led to deepening tensions in various parts of the Tibet Autonomous Region (TAR).
Work teams sent to Driru prior to China’s National Day on October 1 had ordered local people to display the Chinese flag as part of an intensified drive across the Tibet Autonomous Region to enforce loyalty to the Chinese Communist Party. According to Radio Free Asia, around 40 Tibetans were detained after refusing to do so on or around September 29-30. Hundreds of Tibetans protested at the county office, demanding their release, according to the same report, which cited a Tibetan source as saying: “Groups of seven paramilitary policemen have been stationed at each house and are watching the Tibetans. Villagers are not being allowed to tend to their animals, and any Tibetan found loitering in the town is being taken away.”(RFA, Tibetans Clash With Police Over Chinese Flag Campaign – October 2, 2013).
