Chinese rescue teams with sophisticated search and rescue tools have actually been racing against time to save lives in main Myanmar following the ravaging magnitude-7.9 earthquake that struck on Friday.The death toll has risen to 2,886, with 4,639 hurt and 373 still missing out on, according to Myanmars State Administration Council information group on Wednesday.At the severely harmed Sky Villa apartment in Mandalay City, the search and rescue group from Chinas Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) ran drones to survey the moving debris from above and life detectors to scan for trapped people.
Our 51-member team brought varied rescue tools to Myanmar, consisting of concrete breakers, cutting devices, infrared displacement detectors, life detectors, and drones.
By teaming up with the China Search and Rescue Team and sharing resources, we aim to save as lots of survivors as possible, stated Jiu Yu-gok, leader of the HK rescue team.At the exact same site, the China International Search and Rescue Team (CISAR) released snake-eye life detectors that provide visual verification and identify auditory hints.
The team pulled out 3 survivors from the collapsed Sky Villa on Monday, thanks to the device. We drilled holes into the debris and used an endoscope and a snake-eye (life detector) to scan within, adjusting positions until we figured out the survivors location.
The device also transmitted real-time video, giving us a clear view of their condition, said Bi Hongyi, team leader of CISAR.The search and rescue team mobilized its earthquake reaction lorry to Mandalay with 369 specialized tools to save lives.This all-in-one lorry integrates power supply, lighting, leak detection systems, and detection, search, medical help, and logistics functions.
This car considerably decreases equipment switchover time, boosting functional performance.
It allows us to penetrate deeper into disaster zones without manual gear hauling, making on-site saves much more effective, said Han Zhenze, CISAR captain.
