A 7.0-magnitude earthquake struck Baqen County of the city of Nagqu in southwest China's Xizang Autonomous Region last Thursday. After the earthquake, fire and rescue teams rushed to the disaster area to carry out emergency rescue and related support work. At a resettlement site in Maru Township of the county, besides the busy rescue workers, there were also heartwarming scenes. After work, firefighters went over to the children, chatting and playing with them. Facing these “big friends,” the children also enjoyed relaxed and happy moments. In the disaster area, firefighters not only faced heavy rescue tasks, but also did their best to help affected residents restore their daily lives. In response to the bathing needs of people at the resettlement site, the fire and rescue forces also deployed mobile shower fire trucks to provide bathing support for affected residents. In these firefighters, the children saw not only bravery during rescue operations but also a friendly and gentle side like that of family members.
