Wang assured the public that the risks of geological disasters had been deemed controllable, thus allowing residents to safely return to their homes.

To further mitigate potential risks, authorities have established seven geological disaster risk monitoring points around the village, Wang added. These points are staffed around the clock, with personnel conducting continuous monitoring and recording any changes in risk factors.

Looking forward, Wang emphasized the commitment to medium-and long-term monitoring plans. These plans will be based on ongoing assessments of geological conditions to ensure that the community remains safe and well-informed.
