Search and Rescue Progress After Landslide
Search and rescue progress after the landslide disaster at Gyirong Port
has gripped public attention, but so far,
no survivors have been found. Experts note that rescue
efforts are extremely difficult because of the
destructive nature of this disaster.
First, the disaster type was unusual,
with exceptionally destructive force.
This disaster was a multi-stage cascading
disaster chain, combining an ice avalanche,
debris flow, and mudslide, three high-altitude,
high-speed, high-energy hazards,
making it an extreme high-energy geological disaster.
It instantly cut off the port's roads,
power supply, and communications,
causing widespread damage to local infrastructure.
Second, the impact was enormous,
leaving no room to escape. This disaster
amassed immense kinetic energy over a drop of
several thousand meters, inflicting intense localized devastation on
the port's 0.7-square-kilometer core area.
As the energy erupted in a confined space,
it created an explosive impact, destroying all nearby buildings and facilities.
People at the scene had virtually no conditions
in which to take cover or escape.
Third, the disaster flow was extremely fast,
making escape virtually impossible.
At its fastest, this disaster reached 180
kilometers per hour, far exceeding ordinary mudslides,
leaving people less than two minutes to react and escape.
The disaster struck by pouring in and pushing forward,
filling every gap, and the core area contained
no safe shelters whatsoever.
Fourth, search-and-rescue conditions were extremely poor,
making searches exceptionally difficult.
After the disaster, debris at Gyirong Port
averaged four meters in depth,
reaching up to 16 meters.
The deposits were densely compacted and mixed with large
boulders and mud. Missing people were deeply buried underground,
leaving an extremely low chance of survival.
Life detectors can effectively search to a depth
of less than two meters. Meanwhile, at the scene,
the river is swift and the background noise is high,
greatly increasing the difficulty of search-and-rescue operations.
Despite the extreme disaster and countless obstacles,
rescue teams are still carefully searching every
inch of the area and doing everything possible to conduct intensive
search-and-rescue efforts, demonstrating through their perseverance
reverence for life.

吉隆口岸泥石流灾害后搜救进展 牵动人心，但截至目前仍 未发现幸存者。专家指出，救 援难度大，根源在于这 次灾害的毁灭性特质。
第一，灾害类型特殊， 破坏力极强。 本次灾害属于多环节连锁的 灾害链，聚集了冰崩、 碎屑流、泥石流三种高位、
高速、高能灾害的特征， 属于高能极端地质灾害， 瞬间导致口岸道路、 电力、通信全部中断， 辖区基础设施大面积损毁。
第二，冲击威力巨大， 无逃生空间。此次灾害凭借 数千米落差汇聚超强动能， 对口岸零点七平方公里核心区 造成高强度点状重创。
由于能量集中在狭小空间爆发， 形成爆炸性冲击，周边建筑设施 尽数被毁，现场人员几乎没有避 险逃生的条件。 第三，灾害流速极快，
避险难度为零。 此次灾害最高时速可达一百八 十公里，远超普通泥石流， 群众逃生反应时间不足两分钟。 灾害以灌注推压的方式侵袭，
填满所有空隙，核心区域不存 在任何安全避险掩体。 第四，搜救条件极差， 排查难度极大。 灾害发生后，吉隆口岸堆积
物平均厚度四米， 最高达十六米。 堆积密实，且夹杂大量巨 石淤泥，失联人员被深埋地底， 生还可能性极低。
生命探测仪有效探测深 度不足两米。同时现场 河水湍急，干扰噪音大， 大幅增加搜救排查难度。 纵然灾情极端，阻碍重重，
救援力量目前仍在细致排查每 寸区域，全力以赴开展深 度搜救，用坚守诠释对 生命的敬畏。
