Chinese police have killed 28 members of a "terrorist group" in the mainly Muslim Xinjiang region, authorities announced today, in the bloodiest such operation in months and as Beijing denounces Western "double standards" in the wake of the Paris attacks.

Chinese security forces in the restive far western region of Xinjiang have killed 17 people, including women and children, accused of involvement in an attack at a coal mine that left at least 50 dead, US-based Radio Free Asia said today.

Authorities in China's far-flung western region of Xinjiang have detained 380 people and busted 32 terror cells in a month-long crackdown on violence, state media said on Monday, following an upsurge in attacks blamed on Islamist militants.
