Extreme weather in Mongolia caused 10 deaths and hundreds of people lost contact! What rescue measures have been taken locally?

Sandstorm is a common natural disaster, which is common in northern China. However, in recent years, with the continuous expansion of shelterbelts in China, the probability of sandstorms is getting lower and lower.

Some time ago, sandstorms from Mongolia hit most parts of northern China? Yellow encirclement? As the birthplace of sandstorm, Mongolia has suffered great losses. Sandstorm caused 10 deaths and hundreds of people were missing.

Government: On June 5438+04, extreme weather caused many provinces to enter a state of natural disasters, calling for emergency rescue for herders.

In addition to casualties and missing persons, the strong sandstorm weather also caused some herdsmen's property losses. Among them, 58 yurts and 12 1 yard were destroyed by the strong sandstorm, more than 20 houses were overturned, and 1200 cattle and sheep were swept away by the strong sandstorm. Strong sandstorms also damaged some power lines in western Mongolia, causing power outages in some areas. An official of the General Emergency Bureau of Mongolia said at a news conference that spring is the season of frequent sandstorms. In May 2008 and May 20 18, severe sandstorms caused casualties and property losses such as livestock and yurts.

Although there are several light or heavy sandstorms in Ulaanbaatar every year, the sandstorm since June 5438+04 is the most serious in recent years. 14 in the morning, a sandstorm suddenly blew in Ulaanbaatar. The whole city is covered with dust, and the visibility is only tens of meters. Reporters can still feel the strong smell of sand in the air when they close the windows at home. Start two air purifiers indoors to maintain air quality for a long time? Red? The pollution is very serious.

Fortunately, the sandstorm in Ulaanbaatar lasted only three or four hours and was blown to the south by the cold air in the northwest, which had little impact on the travel and life of urban citizens. Many people are still very concerned about epidemic prevention and vaccination, especially Ulaanbaatar, with a population of over 6,543,800+4,000. More than 100 cases are confirmed every day, and more than 3000 cases are local. The government had to raise the level of prevention and control again from 15, and 14 concentrated industries were closed for two weeks.
