As of 8 PM on October 7, the Ministry of Emergency Management reported a stable national safety situation, with no major disasters or accidents occurring.
In preparation for the holiday, the State Council’s Work Safety Committee initiated an extensive campaign aimed at bolstering safety production measures. Collaborating with the Ministry of Emergency Management, the committee conducted on-site inspections and provided expert guidance in critical regions. Additionally, the Office of the National Disaster Reduction and Relief Committee worked alongside various departments to evaluate natural disaster risks nationwide during the National Day holiday, with a specific focus on preventing and responding to floods, typhoons, geological hazards, and forest fires.
Throughout the holiday period, the Ministry of Emergency Management continuously monitored risks and potential hazards, implementing tailored safety precautions. An urgent notice from the State Council Work Safety Committee’s office prompted safety risk assessments and corrective actions for amusement facilities, particularly concerning cable cars, large rides, and the safety of non-road tourist vehicles operating in high-risk areas.
Meanwhile, the National Flood Control Office maintained vigilant oversight of rainfall and flood conditions across key provinces, directing efforts to mitigate mountain torrents, geological disasters, and urban flooding, while also ensuring the safety of reservoirs and hydropower stations during this flood season. The National Forest Fire Prevention Command Office monitored forest fire risks, enhanced management of outdoor fire sources, and enforced rigorous fire inspections at forest checkpoints, especially in sensitive forest areas and parks.
During the holiday, the National Fire and Rescue Administration conducted comprehensive fire safety inspections, focusing on festive events and important locations. They launched special initiatives addressing safety concerns related to electric bicycles and emergency access routes, while also ensuring readiness and patrols in high-risk zones. In addition, the National Mine Safety Supervision Bureau intensified monitoring and enforcement in key mining areas, strengthening efforts in risk control, hazard identification, and addressing violations.
Emergency management departments at various levels remained alert to risks in critical sectors and densely populated areas, including mines, hazardous chemicals, fire safety, transportation, construction sites, tourist attractions, and transportation hubs. Their actions included enhanced oversight, inspections, and safety awareness campaigns aimed at eliminating risks and preventing major accidents, alongside coordinated efforts for natural disaster preparedness and response.
Throughout the holiday, national fire and rescue teams responded to more than 38,000 alarms, deploying over 408,000 personnel and rescuing more than 4,420 individuals. They established over 4,470 pre-positioned response points in key regions, while national emergency rescue teams mobilized more than 6,970 personnel to provide risk prevention and safety technical services to over 1,130 enterprises.
