Sandstorms and snowfall have blanketed regions in northwest China since Saturday, leading to traffic congestion.
Ruoqiang County in China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region experienced reduced visibility to less than 100 meters due to sandstorms, prompting authorities to implement traffic control measures on many roads.
In Turpan, another city in Xinjiang, local rescue teams were deployed to assist stranded individuals and vehicles amidst the sandstorms.
Additionally, Shaanxi's capital city of Xi'an and other cities in the province were covered in dust. Highways in Jiuquan City, located in northwest China's Gansu Province, were temporarily closed, resulting in stranded vehicles. As weather conditions improved on Sunday, traffic resumed on some roads, while efforts were underway to clear snow and ice on others.
