A video released on social media shows that there is no trace of village houses at the landslide, and the surrounding area is full of large and small stones. The obvious cross section of the landslide can be seen from the distant mountain, and some villagers are carrying out rescue at the ruins. (Head Office reporter Liu Zhimin and Wang Shuo)
