US closely monitoring the situation in China

The United States has said, it is closely monitoring situation in China in the aftermath of the alleged car suicide attack in Tiananmen Square in the national capital Beijing, which China says is an act of terrorism.
"We are continuing to closely review reports about this incident," State Department Deputy Spokesperson, Marie Harf, told reporters.
"We do understand that the Chinese authorities have investigated it, I think they have arrested five people and declared it an act of terrorism."
