Bayingolin Mongol Autonomous Prefecture, China - July 19, 2024

On July 19, 2024, a dramatic rescue unfolded in Hejing as a vehicle crossing a river suddenly faced a torrential surge of water, putting its occupants at risk of being swept away. The incident, captured on video, showed the vehicle and its two passengers perilously close to being overwhelmed by the swift and powerful current.

Collaborating with local residents, Hejing traffic police mobilized a full-scale rescue operation to extract the endangered individuals from the precarious situation. The joint effort and swift response ensured the safe rescue of both passengers.

In light of the ongoing flood season, authorities emphasize caution for travelers, advising against routes through mountainous areas, river valleys, and other hazardous zones prone to flooding. Drivers are urged to carefully assess water depth and safety conditions when encountering flooded roads, proceeding cautiously and avoiding low-lying areas, bridges, and tunnels.
