A 5.2-magnitude earthquake struck China’s southwestern Guangxi region early on Monday, May 18, killing at least two people and leaving one missing. More than 7,000 residents were evacuated from Liuzhou city following the tremor. State media outlets CCTV and Xinhua reported that the deceased were a 63-year-old man and his 53-year-old wife. Four others were injured and hospitalized, though none were in critical condition.
CCTV said at least 13 buildings collapsed as a result of the quake. Videos released by local media showed panicked residents rushing out of high-rise buildings and debris scattered across several areas. Rescue teams were searching through the rubble using sniffer dogs and heavy machinery to locate the missing person and clear debris.
Rail authorities reported potential transport disruptions as they inspected rail lines and infrastructure for damage. However, Chinese media confirmed that electricity, communications, water, gas, and road networks remained normal.
