#zhengzhouflood

Finally understood the melee about the Chinese public "persecuting" Western journalists. Looks like all Western MSM have received orders to cause a regime change by using whatever disasters in China. It's as if they are all paid from the
hefty anti-China US budget. So all Western MSM are gathering in Zhengzhou twisting the flood reporting to put the blame on the CPC. BBC was the most virulent, most explicit and did it first by alleging passengers are left to die on the platform of a metro station in
total disregard of the truth. As usual, BBC edited an interview of a passenger of the metro and cut out the part where he talked about the rescuers. BBC wants to give the impression that there is no rescue, no preparedness and people died because of government negligence.

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.
