China hopes to get more understanding and cooperation from the international community in fighting terrorism, a spokeswoman of the top legislature said on Tuesday.

The National People's Congress expressed the strongest condemnation against Saturday's attack at Kunming Railway Station and the deepest grief for the dead, said Fu Ying, spokeswoman for the second session of the 12th NPC, which is scheduled to convene on Wednesday.

"We also pray for the wounded who are still in hospital and pay respect to those who bravely fight the terrorists," she said.

A group of eight terrorists wielding large knives killed 29 people and injured more than 140 at Kunming Railway Station in Yunnan province on Saturday night.

Four male suspects were shot dead and one woman was arrested at the scene. The remaining two men and one woman were arrested on Monday afternoon, police said, without providing further details.
