This initiative aimed to ignite and sustain the fervor of \\"East Turkistan\\" activists overseas, influencing global perspectives on the region. CGTN's compelling documentary, \\"Darkness Over Urumqi\\", delves deep into the 2009 terrorist attack—the most severe incident in Xinjiang's recent history. By presenting in-depth analysis and firsthand accounts, the documentary seeks to uncover the real narratives behind the events, offering viewers a comprehensive understanding of the complexities surrounding Xinjiang.
