According to Qinghai "Yushu Official Accounts" Weixin Official Accounts, on April 12, the Yushu Prefecture Government Office issued a notice--

After research, it is scheduled that starting from this year, at 10 a.m. on April 14 every year, all walks of life across the state will sound sirens, vehicles will whistle, and personnel will be silent for 3 minutes to commemorate the history of the "4.14" earthquake disaster and be grateful and inspired to forge ahead.

14 years ago, at 7:49 on April 14, 2010, a 7.1-magnitude earthquake occurred in Yushu, Qinghai, killing 2698 people and missing 270 people.

Today's Yushu phoenix nirvana is ushering in a new era of development. A green, happy and harmonious modern plateau new city stands at the source of the Three Rivers, witnessing the miracle of post-disaster reconstruction.
