China bus blasts
Explosions on two Chinese buses have killed at least two people and injured 14 in the southwestern city of Kunming.
The official Xinhua news agency blamed the blasts on "sabotage" and said police had started roadside checks in Kunming, the capital of Yunnan province, to try to find the person or persons responsible.
The attack happened less than three weeks before the Beijing Games, which China has warned could be a target of terror attacks.
It is reported that an explosion on one bus happened at the Panjiawan stop at 7.10am and the second blast was nearby.
Pictures showed a gaping hole in the side of one of the buses and glass scattered in the street.
China has occasionally witnessed bus explosions staged by disgruntled farmers or laid-off workers wanting to air grievances over poverty, demolitions or corruption.
