WATCH: Aerial Drone Video of Liulan Dam Collapse & Mass Evacuations Amid Typhoon Maysak Floods!
A catastrophic structural failure at the mid-sized Liulan Reservoir dam has triggered a massive regional crisis in southern China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, forcing the emergency evacuation of more than 48,000 residents. Torrential downpours brought by the weakening inland trajectory of Typhoon Maysak saturated regional water basins, blowing open a massive 50-meter breach in the reservoir wall in Hengzhou on Monday morning and instantly inundating multiple downstream communities. Municipal authorities in Nanning immediately elevated the regional flood-control emergency response to Level I—the highest tier within the central government's disaster mitigation matrix—as water levels at more than 70 monitoring stations crossed critical alert parameters. At least two casualties have been officially confirmed, though secondary flash floods and severe landslides continue to endanger urban districts and isolate rural villages. In response, China's Ministry of Emergency Management has deployed over 1,000 specialized rescue personnel, inflatable fleets, and reconnaissance drones alongside a coordinated distribution of 150,000 emergency relief items to manage the unfolding humanitarian emergency.
