【Foreign Media Reporters Enter Tibet's Jilong Disaster Area: Witnessing the Severity of the Disaster, Lamenting the Challenges of Rescue Efforts】
"Look at the extent of the destruction here—it's truly shocking..." From September 5 to 6, Chinese authorities organized a visit for foreign media reporters to the Jilong disaster area in Tibet. Reporters who went deep into the front lines of disaster relief were stunned by the immense destructive power of the mudslide while also directly experiencing the difficulties of the rescue operations.

Arriving in the disaster area, a reporter from the U.S. National Broadcasting Company (NBC) looked around and couldn't help but say it was "a scene of utter devastation." A CNN reporter stated: "Seeing the extent of the destruction here is truly shocking... The rescue efforts here face extremely severe challenges."

CNN reported that the Jilong Port was once a bustling hub for tourists and merchants traveling between China and Nepal, but the mudslide on August 26 swallowed everything up. Entering the disaster area, the air was thick with heavy dust and mist. The site was filled with numerous rescue vehicles, and completely destroyed roads had been covered with gravel to allow passage. Rescue workers had set up a temporary memorial for the victims, covered with yellow flowers, with a Chinese national flag standing amid the rubble, fluttering in the biting cold wind.

The report also described how arduous and circuitous the journey was for the CNN reporter to enter the disaster area, illustrating the evident difficulties faced by rescue personnel in reaching the site.

A Channel NewsAsia (CNA) reporter noted that due to the destruction of access roads into the disaster area, rescue teams initially had to climb over mountains to search for trapped individuals, under extremely harsh conditions with debris and mud everywhere.

The CNA reporter pointed out that the ground in the disaster area remains very muddy even now. On some sections of the road, feet sink into the soil with each step, underscoring the immense challenges of the rescue work.

She also detailed the on-site rescue operations: Every few minutes, rescue personnel would raise a flag and blow a whistle to signal the excavator to pause operations. The workers below would then use shovels to dig. This meticulous approach was taken to avoid the excavator accidentally injuring people buried under the silt, ensuring they could be safely extracted.

On the way back to the bus, the CNA reporter said: "It's starting to rain now—this is the harsh weather rescue personnel have to contend with every day. The temperature is dropping, and it's currently the rainy season. You can imagine how cold the nights must be." (Source: Hong Kong News Network)

Tears welling up💔 Post-90s border policewoman Wen Yan went missing while on duty during the August 26 Jilong debris flow disaster. Her parents traveled thousands of miles to the border crossing, cradling a jar of her native soil as a keepsake. Her father wrote: "We couldn't bring you home—it's a deep regret. If there's a chance, Mom and Dad still want to come see you." Rooted at the national gateway for thirteen years, her youth remained in the snowy frontier—this jar of earth is the final bond between parents and daughter.
