Early Friday morning, a construction cable snapped at an under-construction bridge in northwest China’s Qinghai Province. The bridge is part of the Qinghai section of the Sichuan–Qinghai Railway. 😔
The accident claimed the lives of ten workers. Four others are missing, while two remain stranded on the bridge’s arch, with their vital signs unconfirmed. ⛑️
Search-and-rescue teams are working around the clock to reach the missing and stranded workers. 🚁🔦
Our thoughts are with the victims’ families and the rescue crews on the ground. 🙏
