Explainer: China is expanding its network of detention camps in Xinjiang

The video discusses 380 suspected detention facilities in Xinjiang, where mostly Muslim minorities are held. The Australian Strategic Policy Institute used satellite images to identify these sites, which have expanded since 2017. The facilities are categorized into four tiers based on security features. Tier 1 includes low-security re-education centers, Tier 2 consists of dedicated re-education camps, Tier 3 involves high-security detention centers, and Tier 4 comprises maximum security prisons. Each tier has distinct characteristics, with varying levels of security and intentions for rehabilitation.
