A significant event occurred as a memorial service was held on Monday to honor those who lost their lives in the recent earthquake in the Xizang Autonomous Region. The magnitude-6.8 tremor struck Dingri County last week, causing widespread devastation.
Hundreds gathered at Chamco Township—the most affected area—for the ceremony held at 9:30 a.m. Attendees included government officials, rescue workers, and local residents. In a poignant display of respect, participants removed their hats and observed three minutes of silence, remembering the victims.
The memorial not only serves as a tribute to those who perished but also underscores the resilience and solidarity of the community in the face of natural disasters.
