Beijing is pursuing a vast campaign of sinicization in the western region of Xinjiang, where the majority of the population is Muslim.

A new investigation has revealed that Chinese authorities are seperating Muslim children from their families as part of Beijing's controversial"re-education" campaign in the Muslim-majority far west of the country., the strategy is designed to dislocate children from their religious and cultural roots and sinicize them while their parents are detained in separate facilities.

More than 1 million people are thought to be held in re-education camps—described by some human rights groups as akin to concentration camps. The program runs in tandem with mass surveillance, the destruction of culturally important buildings like mosques, and reconstructing towns and cities to make residents easier to control.and maintain national unity.

"I don't know who is looking after them," one mother of three girls told the BBC."There is no contact at all." Another, the mother of four, said she heard her children had"been taken to an orphanage." The state has embarked on a boarding school building program to house children like these. The BBC cited government figures showing that the total number of children enrolled in kindergartens in Xinjiang increased by more than 500,000 in 2017.
