Discover the latest updates on Taiwan's tallest skyscraper and a rescue mission in Jammu Kashmir after earthquakes hit the regions.
In the aftermath of Taiwan's most powerful earthquake in 25 years, the iconic Taipei 101 skyscraper showcased the marvel of modern engineering by remaining resilient. While two Indians initially went missing after the quake, the government reassured their safety. Rescue teams in Taiwan battled the threat of landslides and rockfalls in the search for missing individuals, highlighting their unwavering determination. The use of a giant pendulum, affectionately known as 'Damper Baby,' shielded the tallest skyscraper from the earthquake's impact.
Meanwhile, in Jammu Kashmir, a separate earthquake caused tremors, leading people to evacuate their homes in areas like Kistwar and Doda. As Taiwan dealt with the aftermath of a 7.4-magnitude quake, the news of 24 people still missing after a 7.2 magnitude tremor added to the ongoing rescue challenges. Despite the devastation, rescue efforts in Taiwan and the heightened alert in Jammu Kashmir demonstrated the resilience and unity in times of adversity.
The safety of two Indian nationals missing in Taiwan after the earthquake serves as a reminder of hope amidst chaos. Additionally, the unique engineering feat of the 'Damper Baby' in Taipei 101 showcases the innovative solutions in constructing earthquake-resistant structures.
