Buses filled with stones pushed into flooded river to fill dam breach in China

Several buses filled with mud and stones were pushed into a flooded river to fill the dam break in northern China.

The video, filmed in the city of Dehui in Jilin Province on September 15, shows a crane and a digger pushing a bus into a river.

A dam broke after being soaked in water above the normal level for a long time, affecting two nearby villages.

14 buses were used to plug the gap.

Over 2,800 people were evacuated and no casualties were reported.
