China: Vehicle Encounters Severe Sandstorm On Highway In Guazhou, Gansu

On September 21, 2024, in Guazhou, Gansu Province, northwestern China, a video captured a vehicle encountering a severe sandstorm on a fast-moving highway. The sky was filled with thick, swirling yellow dust, making visibility extremely poor as waves of sand swept across the road. As the vehicle pushed through the storm, the view became entirely engulfed in yellow, obscuring everything in sight. The filmer later reflected on the experience, expressing relief at having made it through safely, saying, "Looking back at this video, it felt incredibly dangerous."
