In Gyirong County, southwest China's Xizang Autonomous Region, workers are making reinforced gabions – rebar mesh cages filled with rocks – to support roadbed construction in mudslide-hit areas. Rescue crews are racing to repair a section of the G216 national highway leading to Gyirong Port, which was damaged by a mudslide along the China-Nepal border. Once completed, the reinforced gabions will be transported to disaster-hit areas. In some complex sections of the road, reinforced gabions, along with large rocks, will be placed in the fast-flowing river to build a stronger foundation for the road. #highway #mudslide #road #rescue 📺 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=c
