Pictures posted on xgll.com.cn show soldiers, forest fire fighters and local residents are trying to restore life by getting rid of the silt, rubbles and other messes brought by a recent flood.

Flood discharged from an upstream barrier lake inflicted some Jinsha river-side villages in Diqing from November 14 to 15, causing heavy property loss in the Tibetan prefecture but no casualties thanks to in-time warning and evacuation.
