What is the reason for the announcement of the cause of death of 17 people caused by mountain torrents in Qinghai? What do you think of this matter?

A catastrophic flash flood occurred in Xining City, Qinghai Province. 17 local residents were killed in this flash flood. They were washed away by the flood and drowned. The local authorities investigated the causes of flash floods, and concluded that the rainfall in Xining reached the maximum in a short time, and the local terrain was steep, which was prone to flash floods.

According to statistics, thousands of local residents were affected by the severe flash floods in Xining, and more seriously, 17 people were killed. At present, the whereabouts of 17 people are still unknown. Many houses were destroyed by flash floods, causing a large number of casualties and property losses. According to the local residents who were named in this flash flood, unexpectedly, where the flash flood came from, the mudslide directly rushed into the residents' homes without warning, and the local power supply and communication signals were also severely damaged. Some people still failed to contact their relatives. In some low-lying places, only the infrastructure is left after the houses are washed away.

Local firefighters launched the flash flood rescue operation at the first time. With the efforts of firefighters around the clock, dozens of people who lost contact were rescued. Local authorities urgently sent relief materials to the disaster area, including tents, mineral water and fast food. According to the field investigation of local authorities, there are three main reasons for flash floods. First, the amount of education in Xining is relatively large, and the soil moisture is saturated. Secondly, the rainfall in Xining has accumulated a lot of rainfall in a short time. In this case of heavy precipitation, the local surface water flow is very large. Finally, the river course in the flood-stricken area of Xining City is relatively narrow, and after a large amount of rainwater is accumulated, the river course can't keep water.

It is understood that the rescued victims are in a relatively stable situation and are out of danger. However, this flash flood disaster has had a heavy impact on Xining City, Qinghai Province. Sometimes there is still no news from the victims of Qingming Festival, and their situation is worrying about the great cause of the people of China. I hope this flash flood disaster will not bring more trauma to local residents.
