Satellite images show China has bulldozed Uygur burial sites in Xinjiang

Satellite image analysis reportedly shows that China has flattened dozens of Uygur graveyards in Xinjiang, the autonomous region in the country’s far west, since 2014. The report, from the news agency Agence France-Presse (AFP) and non-profit satellite imagery analysts Earthrise Alliance, said the Chinese government exhumed and bulldozed the burial sites, and that most of the graveyards were cleared from 2017 to 2019.
