Hey friends! Did you hear about the earthquake that happened recently in Dingri County, in the Xizang Autonomous Region? 🏔️ A big earthquake, measuring 6.8, shook the area, and many people were affected.
But here’s the amazing part: people are coming together to help! So far, over 5,000 cozy temporary homes have been set up to keep everyone warm and safe. 🏠💖
Imagine building 13,000 small houses in a short time! That’s what the helpers are doing. Over 6,000 of these houses have already arrived, and more are on the way. The top priority is making sure everyone stays warm during this chilly time of year. It’s super cold there because the area is over 4,000 meters above sea level—brrr! ❄️
To keep families warm, they’ve delivered electric stoves, heated blankets, and warm clothes. Isn’t that thoughtful? 🔥🧥
They’ve also checked the nearby reservoirs—places where water is stored—to make sure they’re safe. Some had cracks because of the earthquake, so experts are fixing them to prevent any problems.
About 1,500 people living near a reservoir were moved to safe places on higher ground, just to be extra careful. Safety first! ⛰️
People from all over have been super generous, donating money and goods to help. They’ve raised over 1.64 billion yuan—that’s a huge amount! 💰 These donations will help rebuild homes and make sure everyone has what they need.
It’s heartwarming to see how everyone is working together to help those in need. Maybe you can think of ways to help others in your community too! 😊
