神十五待飞 空间站“三舱三船”构型将形成

The Shenzhou-15 spaceship and a Long March-2F carrier rocket were transported yesterday(11/21) to the launch site in Gansu province. The Shenzhou-15 will be launched in the near future, taking three astronauts to China’s space station. They will relieve the three Shenzhou-14 crew members currently living in the station and stay for six months. The China Manned Space Agency said all equipment at the launch site is in good condition, and various pre-launch checks and tests will be carried out as planned. This will be the first time the country’s manned space program will have two astronaut crews in space at the same time.

3.印尼：西爪哇省发生5.6级地震 死亡人数升至250余人

President Joko Widodo said today that the government would provide compensation to victims and their families. The Chinese Embassy in Indonesia has reported that no Chinese nationals have been reported as killed or injured so far. Lei Shuran has more.

The quake struck at 1:21 PM Jakarta time, the epicenter is located 10km southwest of the district of Cianjur in West Java province, at a depth of 10 kilometers.

I heard something crash and then everything was flattened【被平整】.

我听到了撞击声，然后所有东西都被夷为平地了。

Over 10,000 people were forced to flee their homes and take shelter as their houses were damaged by the quake. Infrastructure such as roads, a bridge, school buildings, office buildings, mosques【清真寺】 and health facilities were also severely damaged by the quake. The significant rise of the number of casualties【伤亡人员】 was due to a new report of landslides that buried about 100 residents. The district’s disaster management and mitigation agency has set up 47 centers, providing aid including food and medicine for the victims. Initial rescue attempts were hampered【阻碍】 by damaged roads and bridges and power blackouts, and a lack of heavy equipment to help move the concrete rubble. By today, power supplies and phone communications started to come back online.

目前，1万余人因房屋被损而被迫离家避难。道路、桥梁、学校建筑、办公楼、清真寺和卫生设施等基础设施都受到了地震的严重破坏。由于地震还引发了山体滑坡，掩埋了约100位居民，使得伤亡人数大幅上升。目前，印尼地震灾区营救工作正在逐步进行，已设立47个救灾中心，为受害者提供包括食物和药品在内的援助。起初，救援因道路、桥梁受损、停电及缺乏可以挪动混凝土碎块的重型设备而受阻。今天（11/22），地震灾区的电力供应和通信服务开始逐步恢复。
