Around 18,000 Chinese officials and security forces arrived in Driru county in Nagchu, Kham, last month and ordered Tibetan there residents to raise the Chinese national flag on every house ahead of the Chinese National Day. 40 Tibetans were arrested after a clash with officials and police when they defied the order, but were released after 1,000 supporters went on a hunger strike. Local schools were closed.
