2013年中国境内的恐怖主义活动呈现出宗教极端思想和恐怖主义思想危害深远、攻击武器就地取材、以公安机关作为恐怖袭击的重点目标、公安机关获得的预警性情报较少、处置水平显著提升以及恐怖袭击有向新疆以外地区扩散趋势的特点。公安机关作为政府打击恐怖主义的主导部门，应该构建系统科学的防范体系，从搜集相关情报入手，加强预警工作，力争下好先手棋、打好主动仗。
Terrorist attacks within China showed the following characteristics in 2013：Religious extremism and terrorism thoughts impacted widely；Assault weapons were local materials；Police bureau became key target of terrorist attacks；Police bureau rarely got early warning intelligence；Ability to handle emergencies increased significantly；Terrorist attacks spread to areas outside Xinjiang. As a leading sector in the fight against terrorism，police bureau should build scientific prevention system to gather relevant intelligence from the start，and strengthen early warning，in order to win the battle against terrorism.
