Click to play videoNew Delhi: Five days after the interpol warned of a possible terror attack during the Beijing Olympics, China showcased its readiness to take on all threats.
Among other drills, Chinese security forces foiled mock riots, rappelled from buildings to free hostages and brought under control a hijacked bus.
Last week, the Interpol had warned of threats to the Games from Tibetan protestors and jehadi groups.
Meanwhile, a group of US Jewish leaders have called for a boycott of the Olympic Games saying China has close ties with Iran, Syria and the militant group Hamas.
Interpol officials had said last week that there is a "real possibility" that the Beijing Olympics will be targeted by terrorists or that anti-China groups could attack athletes, Interpol's secretary general said on Friday.
"An attempted act of terrorism is a real possibility and a real concern that all Olympic host countries have shared in recent years," Ronald Noble told the opening of the International Conference on Security Cooperation in Beijing.
"Recent Tibet-related protests have introduced significant additional complications to the normal security considerations for a major international event like these Olympics."
The international leg of the Olympic torch relay has been dogged by pro-Tibet and anti-China protests, following unrest in Tibet last month in which China says about 20 people died.
