Landslide in SW China: 42 Bodies Recovered
Posted by feww on July 5, 2010
Some 42 bodies have been recovered, while 57 people remain missing six days after a landslide in Dazhai Village in SW China’s Guizhou Province.
About 1,000 people from 244 families in nearby areas have been evacuated, official reports say. “Although anti-epidemic measures had been adopted in all the tents, the hot weather might easily trigger diseases, so we want to relocate the villagers,” an official said.
“After days of aerial examination, workers with the land and resources department have found 25 sites at risk of possible landslides in a 90 km area around the buried site.”
