China thwarted eight potential terrorist attacks involving subway and airport bombings and bioterrorist attacks on Olympic venues during the five months leading up to the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, the Beijing Evening News reported Tuesday.
The newspaper cited a book released Tuesday by the World Health Organization and said China had set up an anti-terrorism medical aid system as well as detection techniques for terrorism sources before the Beijing Games started.
