Guizhou Songtao Mountain Landslide has caused 507 people to be affected, and there are still 6 missing people who have not been found
A large-scale landslide occurred on July 8 in Shiban Village, Ganlong Town, Songtao County, Tongren, Guizhou. Surging News (www.thepaper.cn) learned from the Fire and Rescue Bureau of the Ministry of Emergency Management on the 9th that the landslide has caused a total of 113 households and 507 people in 4 village groups of Tianbao, Chenjia, Shijia, and Lizishu to be affected to varying degrees. 19 The houses were flooded, 60 houses were damaged, and six people were still missing. The search and rescue continued.
According to reports, after receiving the report, the Guizhou Provincial Fire and Rescue Corps established the front and rear headquarters. The headquarters and Tongren Detachment's full-time headquarters organized and commanded the scene, and mobilized the relevant forces of the Tongren Detachment and the Qiannan, Southeast Guizhou, and Guiyang Detachment front-relief forces. A total of 27 vehicles, 118 people, 8 dogs, and more than 3200 pieces of equipment were rescued.
After arriving at the scene, the fire and rescue forces took measures such as comparing images before the disaster and asking insiders to repeatedly determine the number and location of people who might be buried and formulate a rescue plan. Because the landslide buried the original road and river course, combined with the complex site environment and unstable landslide body, it was difficult to rescue. Fire rescue means that the combatants overcome the unfavorable factors and use ropes, kayaks and other equipment to enter the core area of the landslide for search and rescue. On the day of July 8, after a day of rescue, 283 people were successfully transferred and resettled, and all trapped people were successfully rescued, and 6 missing persons were searched and rescued.
On July 9, under the unified arrangement of the on-site rescue headquarters, the front headquarters of the Guizhou Fire Rescue Corps integrated the on-site rescue forces and resources, and divided the disaster site into four key search and rescue areas to maximize rescue efficiency. As of now, the rescue is continuing.
