The latest search and rescue situation of 4 missing geological personnel: Pu'er Yuxi has dispatched more than 3,000 rescue forces
The area where the personnel lost contact this time is located in the core area of the Ailao Mountain National Nature Reserve, with high mountains and dense forests, ravines, and no mobile phone signal.
Since the lost connection zone is adjacent to Xinping County, Yuxi City, Yuxi City immediately connected with the Geological Survey Bureau and Pu'er City after receiving the report, and established a search and rescue team for the lost connection geological staff in Ailao Mountain to fully participate in the search and rescue work from Xinping.
At the same time as the carpet search, the forward command is also constantly moving forward in the mountains in the direction of the loss of connection, and in the rescue, the frequency of calls by drones and helicopters has been increased to give the rescuers confidence.
In addition to the increase in personnel, Pu'er today focused on the formation of three heavy-duty crossing teams that climbed Ailao Mountain to search and advance in the direction of Xinping, and formed an encirclement with the Yuxi search and rescue force.
The other 10 search and rescue teams will conduct a dragnet and carpet precision search and rescue around the area where the missing persons lived on the 13th.
Based on the information of the front command centers in Pu'er and Yuxi, as of the evening of November 20, Pu'er had involved more than 560 rescuers, with more than 1,900 rescuers dispatched, and Yuxi had invested more than 1,100 rescuers.
Since it takes 4 to 5 hours to walk to the headquarters for the missing personnel to live on the mountain roads, in order to save the cost of the rescue round-trip time, the headquarters built a replenishment station in the core area today and used airdrop methods to supply supplies to minimize the round-trip time of search and rescue personnel. Most of the search and rescue personnel entering the mountain tonight will stay in the mountain for search and rescue and overnight.
At the same time, the Yunnan Provincial Forest Fire Brigade continued to increase UAV night thermal imaging reconnaissance for 5 consecutive days to improve search and rescue effectiveness.
The emergency management department and the mobile communication company have also sent relevant teams to the scene to support the front communication guarantee.
According to the weather forecast, Zhenyuan County will usher in rainfall from November 21, which will put further pressure on rescue work.
