What's the feeling of a 5.5 earthquake?

The earthquake of magnitude 5.5 is quite serious in the earthquake disaster, and the earthquake has a strong sense of shock, including Dunhuang and Jiayuguan. The epicenter was 0/58km away from Dunhuang/KLOC. The earthquake happened in the morning, when everyone was sober. This is also a lucky thing.

How is the local rescue going?

After the local earthquake, the Axel fire brigade near the earthquake center quickly rushed to the local rescue. Afterwards, the Jiuquan Fire Brigade also arranged for relevant rescuers to rush to the earthquake center, and the Dunhuang Secret Service Fire Bureau quickly mobilized personnel to rescue. In addition, Lanzhou, Jiayuguan, Zhangye, Jinchang and Wuwei have also arranged many reinforcements, and the rescue work is being carried out in an orderly manner.

Did the earthquake cause any casualties?

Because the place where the earthquake happened belongs to no man's land, there are few people around and there are not many houses, so the earthquake caused no casualties and no buildings collapsed. However, landslides occurred in some places, and some sheepfolds collapsed, but they did not cause too many casualties or any economic losses.

Gansu itself is in the earthquake zone, so earthquakes often occur at ordinary times, but fortunately, the earthquake loss is relatively small, which has not caused much impact and inconvenience to local residents. It is hoped that rescuers will also ensure their own safety and prevent aftershocks.
