How many casualties have been caused by large-scale landslides in Xuanhan County?

It is also a sad news that a large-scale landslide occurred in Xuanhan, Sichuan, killing five people.

According to media reports, on the morning of 10 17, due to continuous rainfall, a landslide occurred in Shu Qi Township, a mountainous area in northern Xuanhan County, Sichuan Province, causing some houses and people to be buried. As of the evening of 17, five people had been buried at the scene. Unfortunately, they all lost their vital signs. So far, the relevant departments of Xuanhan County are strengthening geological monitoring in the rainfall landslide area and arranging special personnel to deal with the victims.

After the landslide disaster, the local township government immediately rushed to the scene to carry out rescue work. At the same time, the Xuanhan County Party Committee and the county government immediately organized the Emergency Management Bureau and local firefighters to rush to the scene for rescue. So far, four people have been excavated at the scene, but there are no vital signs. According to informed sources, there is still one person who lost contact at the scene, hoping to find it as soon as possible.

In fact, landslides are very common, especially in mountainous areas. Once a landslide happens, it will often bring great losses to people's lives and property. So, how should we protect ourselves when landslides occur? In fact, we should pay attention to the following points:

First, when a landslide occurs, it is easy to cause personal injury. If you are injured, you must call "120" in time. "120" is the telephone number of the national unified emergency center. In the event of major disasters, accidents, severe trauma, acute poisoning and emergencies, people should immediately call "120" for help, and seek help from the emergency center, and at the same time provide necessary on-site rescue for the wounded or patients.

Second, don't choose the place to avoid disasters on the uphill or downhill slope of the landslide. Don't run from one danger zone to another without a comprehensive investigation. At the same time, we should obey the unified arrangement and not choose our own route.

Third, when encountering a landslide, we must be calm and don't panic. In fact, panic is not only a waste of time, but also the possibility of making wrong decisions.

Fourth, under the condition of ensuring safety, the closer to the original residence, the better, and the more convenient transportation and water and electricity. Don't run to the landslide when you escape.

Fifth, when there is a landslide, you must look around quickly and evacuate to a safer place. Generally, except for high-speed landslides, it is possible to escape from dangerous areas as long as you act quickly. When running away, the best direction is to run in both directions.

Sixth, don't panic when you encounter a high-speed landslide that you can't run away. Under certain conditions, for example, when a landslide slides as a whole, you should keep still or quickly grasp the surrounding trees and other fixed objects. You can hide under solid obstacles, or you can squat in ridges and trenches. It is worth noting that you must protect your head and wrap it in clothes.

In short, a large-scale landslide occurred in Xuanhan, Sichuan, which eventually killed five people.
