Beijing, August 31 /Xinhua/ — As of August 30, all Chinese citizens who were reached in the disaster-affected areas of Nepal after the devastating landslide have been properly evacuated and relocated, and they are safe, said Guo Jiakun, an official representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs /MFA/ of the PRC, on Monday.
Guo Jiakun stated at the daily press briefing that China is currently making every effort to search for and rescue missing persons both domestically and abroad, as well as maintaining close contact with foreign embassies in China to jointly determine the status of missing foreign nationals and provide subsequent assistance.
A natural disaster caused by the sudden collapse of a glacier in the border area of Nepal has resulted in significant human casualties and missing persons on both the Chinese and Nepalese sides. This has become the most serious cross-border disaster between the two countries in recent years, and the relief work is unprecedentedly complex and laborious.
