- At least 48 people were killed after a large section of highway collapsed in southeastern China, sending nearly two dozen vehicles plummeting down a steep slope and bursting into flames.
The tragedy unfolded around 2 a.m. Wednesday as a portion of the four-lane freeway gave way following a month of torrential rains in the city of Meizhou, authorities said.
“Most of the vehicles were buried in soil during the collapse, with a large volume of soil covering them,” Wen Yongdeng, Communist Party secretary for emergency management in the city, told reporters. “Because some of the vehicles involved caught fire, the difficulty of the rescue operation has increased.”

R.I.P the lives lost and may love and care be shown upon those who are left after this disaster truly sad to see.
Was it built by Boeing
Careful. You don't last long as an insider.
Spirit Airline. be careful before you get suicided. :)
They build things so quickly in China, is this a Result ??
its only because they build using tofu. its a tofu bridge, yum
When speed becomes everything quality goes out the window
Such a sad day for those affected.
If anyone thinks this incident is a isolated one in China regarding engineering disasters and collapsed buildings your in for a wake up call when you go see how regular it happens. Most of Beijing was under water recently and many poorer area's completely washed away. Major disaster. No matter how hard the Chinese tried to supress news of it getting out.
I used to watch these to expats who lived in China and they talked about the lack of regulations and how quickly they can construct buildings and other things. Lots of buildings go up but they also have issues with collapses and things breaking....
Blinking??
😲 those poor people... Is this failure because of what is called tofu construction in China? Does anyone know 🤔
Looks like a landslide.
Rip to everyone who died☹️ Hopefully survivors if any are rescued asap.
I think I saw this exact situation in the movie IDIOCRACY…….
quality of made in China. they had the world record of highest reputation of collapsing of everything. apartment building. school. radium. even high speed train.........
yup its that Chinese build quality right there, no doubt in a week it will be back to normal there but it always comes at a cost
Lack of Quality Control - just like their FOOD PRODUCTS.
Made in China brings a whole new meaning…
It happened in Italy highway bridge near Mediterranean Sea had collapsed and cars keep falling down.
They eat gutter oil
trump would have stopped this if he was president
I definitely blame biden for this tragedy
It being in China. Huh ? lol 💡
@@factsoverfear9771 it's a liberal troll trying to gaslight don't mind it

What do you expect with a highway that was built using gas station sushi.
RIP to those lost, and condolences to those affected.
