Blue Sky rescue team receives warm hospitality from Turkiye
Among many other rescuers, the seven members went to Turkiye right after devastating earthquakes struck Turkiye and Syria on Feb 6.
On the morning of Friday, they came back to Baoding and were warmly welcomed by citizens in the city chanting "Bravo" with thunderous applause.
"I think this is an honor we all share for saving lives," Bai said.
According to Bai, the team participated in rescue missions at 10 destroyed buildings and another 133 sites, which saved three survivors from the earthquake and found another 43 people who had died.
After they completed their missions in Turkiye, other rescue teams from China, including rescuers from Hong Kong, had also left Turkiye and successively returned to their home in places across the country, including Tianjin and Shanghai, according to media reports.
