Evacuations at the border
Print Edition
CHINESE border residents were evacuated from buildings after feeling tremors from yesterday’s nuclear test.
People near the frontier with North Korea “clearly felt tremors” in the morning when Pyongyang said it detonated a hydrogen bomb, China Central Television said online.
The areas on the border included Yanji, Hunchun and Changbai in Jilin province, it added — some of the counties closest to the North’s nuclear test site.
Residents in Yanji saw desks and chairs shake and some companies evacuated employees from their offices, CCTV said.
Students at a senior high school were dismissed during an examination after its recreation ground cracked, it added.
