Longnan, Gansu: Four people were washed into Bailong River by floods. What is the current search and rescue situation?

It is understood that on the night of July 15, a sudden flash flood occurred in Hanwang Town, Wudu District, Longnan City, Gansu Province, causing a movable board house in a nearby quarry to be washed into Bailong River, and all four people living in the board house were washed into Bailong River by the flood, resulting in the loss of contact. After the incident, the relevant local departments and public security departments launched a search and rescue for these four people. After search and rescue, one man has been successfully found and three others are still in search and rescue.

Fortunately, after the continuous search and rescue in the later period, the four people who have been successfully found and the man who was rescued at the beginning are all fine after treatment. But the remaining three people who lost contact were not so lucky, and the relevant rescue teams also confirmed that these three people had been killed. Therefore, human beings are so small in the face of natural disasters and life is very fragile. Therefore, it is very necessary to know some emergency measures for mountain torrents.

Many people may think that flash floods are sudden floods, but this statement is not particularly accurate. In fact, flash flood is a sudden and destructive flash flood, and the flow rate of the whole flash flood is particularly fast and the process is relatively short. In mountain torrents, there are not only floods, but also many clods, stones, branches and weeds. Moreover, it is easy to cause natural disasters such as landslides or mudslides, so mountain torrents are still very harmful to human beings.

In our daily life, we must pay more attention to the weather forecast and early warning of mountain torrents, especially when encountering heavy rain, we should plan our trip in advance, and it is best not to pass through mountains, rivers or other dangerous areas. If you are in a mountainous area during the rainstorm, you should pay more attention to the mountain and water potential and move to a safe place as soon as possible. When you encounter a sudden flash flood, you don't have time to move, and don't be too flustered. You should immediately follow the warning message or move to a higher place to wait for rescue.
