International journalist praises China's swift response in mudslide-hit Gyirong

"It's really impressive how fast China acts," a journalist from a Venezuelan media outlet said on Sunday after witnessing heavy machinery working continuously on rescue and recovery efforts at mudslide-hit Gyirong Port in southwest China's Xizang Autonomous Region. "I took a four-and-a-half-hour flight from Beijing to Lhasa, followed by more than 10 hours on the road to reach the disaster-hit area," he said, underscoring just how difficult it is to reach the remote site. The mudslide, triggered by a high-altitude glacier collapse in Nepal on August 26, has left 43 people dead and 519 others missing in Xizang as of Sunday. #FrontlineStory #Xizang #mudslide #GyirongPort #China 📺 Subscribe to our YouTube channel and stay updated with our latest analysis and interviews:👇 https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgrNz-aDmcr2uuto8_DL2jg 👈 Download our APP on Apple Store (iOS): https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/cctvnews-app/id922456579?l=zh&ls=1&mt=8 Download our APP on Google Play (Android): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.imib.cctv For more: https://www.cgtn.com/video Most watched videos: Impossible Challenge: 30 seconds to count banknotes BLINDFOLDED https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZmP_Ybj-jws Impossible Challenge: Gymnastics Boy Arat Hosseini from Iran! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8sxX--U4c8w Impossible Challenge: How to calm babies in 5 seconds? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kR3q9sXM7WA
