Racing Against the Landslide: An Interview with People Living Through the Xinyi Mountain Landslide

In the early hours of June 15th, 2025, as Typhoon "Butterfly" swept through, torrential rain hit Zhonghe Village, Guizi Town, XinyiCity, Maoming, Guangdong. At around 4 a.m., a mountainside collapsed, devastating nearly half the village.

From June 17th to 18th, reporters from the Yangcheng Evening News went deep into the landslide-hit area and temporary resettlement sites for villagers, interviewing those who raced against the landslide. They reconstructed the life-and-death evacuation on that stormy night and documented post-disaster resettlement.

2025年6月15日凌晨，受台风“蝴蝶”影响，广东茂名信宜市贵子镇中和村大雨倾盆，凌晨4时，山体滑坡发生，近半个村庄遭受冲击。

6月17日至18日，羊城晚报记者深入滑坡事发地及村民临时安置点，对话那些与滑坡赛跑的人们，还原这场暴雨夜的生死转移，记录灾后的安置。
