(24-25高一下·江苏连云港·期中)An earthquake killed at least 95 people and left 130 injured after it struck a remote area of southern Tibet near China’s border with Nepal at dawn on Tuesday, Chinese state media reported.
Emergency responders were still assessing (评估) the damage in Dingri county from the quake, which struck at 9: 05 a. m. Beijing time, state broadcaster CCTY said. The US Geological Survey put the quake at 7.1 magnitude (震级). Earlier reports from Chinese media graded it as 6.8 magnitude.
The quake brought down more than 1,700 homes in a county that is home to60, 000 people, according to the Chinese People’s Liberation Army’s Tibet Military Command. The broader Shigatse, at the center of the quake, is the second-largest city in Tibet.
Some 1,500 firefighters were searching the collapsed (倒塌的) buildings for signs of life. Around noon, a child was rescued from a residential building, CCTV reported. Several hundred rescuers who arrived before noon began providing medical aid and relief to homeless residents. Another team, involving hundreds of rescuers and six helicopters, was expected to follow.
Sitting high on the Tibetan plateau at a height of 14,100 feet and 236 miles from the regional capital of Lhasa, Dingri is a major stop on the way to the North Base Camp, where adventurers set out climbing Mount Everest from the north face. The region can be bitterly cold in January, with temperatures often dropping as low as -15℃. Local tourism officials on Tuesday closed the North Base Camp until further notice.
A Dingri resident told local media that the shaking at first felt similar to the massive 2008 earthquake in neighboring Sichuan province that claimed 70,000 lives. Then the second floor of his house caved in and destroyed his car, said a man known only by his family name, Wang.
Past earthquakes that hit mountainous Tibetan regions of western China have drawn public concern about badly constructed homes in relatively poor and lonely villages.
