[국제]The tenth-floor pylon is also’thump’!… the situation in Mongolia is covered by a sand storm

[앵커]

China has said that the yellow dust, which has left Beijing buried in sand dust and has affected Korea, originated in the Mongolian grasslands.

In Mongolia, where it originated, about 600 people were missing and then 10 people were killed.

Correspondent Kang Seong-woong reports from Beijing.

A huge’sand storm’ covered the sky.

This is the’yellow sand wind’ that originated from the dry grasslands of Mongolia last weekend.

The sand dust accompanied by a typhoon-class strong wind seems to devour a quiet little town.

Not only the grasslands, but also the surrounding cities were trapped in dust that was difficult to tell.

About 600 nomads in the Mongolian grasslands once disappeared in the raid of the’Yellow Storm’.

Fortunately, most of them came back alive, but about 10 people, including a 5-year-old child, eventually died.

Even a ten-story tower was broken in a sandstorm with a maximum wind speed of more than 30m/sec.

Residents in the nearby area trembled in darkness and cold after a power outage, amid the terror of the sand wind.

Sandy blizzards raged in Neimenggu, north of China, close to the Mongolian grasslands.

As the sand and snow from the strong winds covered private houses, residents were trapped inside the house one after another.

A 71-year-old grandmother was rescued two hours after five or six police officers removed snow and sand with shovels and carts.

This yellow dust became stronger as’yellow dust in 10 years’ as strong winds carried sand dust far away.

In particular, the Chinese meteorological authorities analyzed that there was a lot of dirt on the Mongolian grasslands before they were still growing.

Beijing, which was covered in yellow sand, has a sunny day again.

Because of the strong wind, the sand dust disappeared in one day, and there are several more forecasts of yellow dust this spring.
