BEIJING, May 26 -- On the night of May 23, a mountain torrent struck Sanshe Village, Sishui Township, Longsheng County, Guilin City, in south China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. The Guilin Detachment under the Chinese People's Armed Police (PAP) Force Guangxi Corps immediately activated emergency response plan and prepared for rescue operations. At 9:30 a.m. on May 24, the Guilin Detachment dispatched 13 troops along with over 50 pieces of rescue equipment to the disaster-stricken area to carry out rescue efforts.

北京5月26日電  5月23日，廣西桂林市龍勝各族自治縣泗水鄉(xiāng)三舍村突發(fā)山洪災(zāi)害。事發(fā)后，武警廣西總隊桂林支隊立即啟動救災(zāi)應(yīng)急預(yù)案，做好相關(guān)救援準(zhǔn)備。24日9:30時，接到上級命令，桂林支隊立即派出13名官兵攜帶50多件救援裝備趕赴受災(zāi)區(qū)域參與救援。

Due to the blocked roads, vehicles and large rescue equipment were temporarily unable to reach the disaster-stricken area. Braving the risk of secondary disasters, the 13-member task force proceeded on foot and carried out search and rescue efforts along the riverbank.

由于通往受災(zāi)地域的公路受阻，車輛及大型救援設(shè)備暫時無法到達(dá)現(xiàn)場。任務(wù)分隊冒著次生災(zāi)害危險，徒步進(jìn)入救災(zāi)一線，沿著河灘開展搜救工作。

As of 5:00 p.m. on May 24, troops of the Guilin Detachment had searched approximately two kilometers of riverbank. At present, the rescue operation is still proceeding in an intense and orderly manner.

截至24日17時，武警桂林支隊官兵已完成約2公里的河灘搜救工作。目前，現(xiàn)場救援工作正緊張有序地開展。
