Yesterday, a tragic incident occurred in China where ten people were killed after a school gymnasium roof collapsed. The incident took place in the city of Xuzhou in the eastern province of Jiangsu, where a group of people were gathered inside the gymnasium for a fitness event.


According to local authorities, the gymnasium was built in 2014 and was undergoing renovation work at the time of the incident. The cause of the collapse is still under investigation, but initial reports suggest that it may have been due to structural issues with the building.


Rescue teams were immediately dispatched to the scene, and the injured were rushed to nearby hospitals for treatment. Unfortunately, despite the best efforts of the medical staff, ten people lost their lives in the incident.


The tragic event has sparked outrage and calls for accountability from the public, with many questioning the safety standards of buildings in China. The incident follows a similar incident in 2016, where a platform collapsed at a music festival in Shanghai, killing three people and injuring dozens more.


Authorities have promised a thorough investigation into the incident and have pledged to hold those responsible accountable for their negligence. The local government has also offered condolences to the families of the victims and has promised to provide support to those affected by the tragedy.


This incident serves as a stark reminder of the importance of safety standards and the need for regular inspections of buildings and infrastructure. It is essential that authorities take swift action to ensure that such incidents do not occur again in the future.


Our thoughts go out to the families and loved ones of those who lost their lives in this tragic incident, and we hope that those injured make a speedy recovery.




中國學校體育館屋頂倒塌慘案造成十人死亡



昨天,中國發生一起學校體育館屋頂倒塌事故,造成十人死亡。 事件發生在東部省份江蘇省徐州市,一群人聚集在體育館內進行健身活動。

據當地有關部門稱,該體育館建於2014年,事發時正在進行裝修工程。 倒塌原因仍在調查中,但初步報告表明,倒塌可能是由於建築物的結構問題造成的。

救援人員立即趕赴現場,傷者被送往附近醫院救治。 不幸的是,儘管醫護人員盡了最大努力,仍有十人在事件中喪生。

這一悲慘事件引發了公眾的憤怒並呼籲追究責任,許多人質疑中國建築的安全標準。 該事件是在2016年發生的類似事件之後發生的,當時上海一個音樂節上的一個平台倒塌,造成三人死亡,數十人受傷。

當局承諾對這一事件進行徹底調查,並承諾追究相關責任人的責任。 當地政府也向遇難者家屬表示哀悼,並承諾向受悲劇影響的人們提供支持。

這一事件清楚地提醒人們安全標準的重要性以及定期檢查建築物和基礎設施的必要性。 當局必須迅速採取行動,確保今後不再發生此類事件。

我們向在這場悲慘事件中喪生的人的家人和親人表示慰問,並希望傷者早日康復。
