Horrible to see flood devastation from the heavy rains (~year’s worth of rain in 3 days, >617mm) in Zhengzhou #郑州—20 July 2021 panorama view of Henan’s #河南 provincial capital city. (郑州市被淹全景). A city of ~11M residents—death toll remains unknown.
What some refer to as the cradle of Chinese civilization—Henan #河南 has seen it’s heaviest rains in 1,000yrs. Dozens of cities are flooded w/unknown death toll. PLA has issued a warning that Luoyang’s #洛阳 Yihetan dam #伊河滩大坝 (west of Zhengzhou) could collapse at any time". Image
PLA regional troops reported the downpour has caused a 20m breach in the Yihetan #伊河滩 dam in Luoyang #洛阳—a city w/a population of ~7M, which risks “collapse at any time”. Authorities have dispatched soldiers to conduct emergency response incl blasting & flood diversion.
