6 children were driven away from the Yangtze River estuary wild swimming, and the surrounding boats

When summer comes, the temperature becomes unusually high, so many children are very unsafe and go directly to the river to cool down. If you really feel very hot, you can blow the air conditioner at home, or you can ask your parents to take yourself to a professional swimming pool to wear protective measures so that it will not be dangerous. If a child chooses the wrong spot for swimming, it can also put their own life at risk.

For example, at around 1:00 p.m. on August 2, 2022, six boys went directly to the Yangtze River estuary to go for a wild swim, but fortunately they were found and driven away by the staff. <>

The 6 boys also happened to be located in the lock area, fortunately, they were seen by the staff from the surveillance when they were swimming, and the staff immediately became alert, and then went to report to the person on duty as soon as possible. The local police station, the village committee and others also rushed to the scene, persuaded the six children to go ashore, and educated the children to know that it is very dangerous to go into the water without permission, and also improved the children's safety awareness. <>

Although it is relatively close to the riverbank, there is a lot of silt and sediment in the river, and most importantly, there are many large boats sailing next to it, and these boys have no sense of danger. In the summer, the water level in the Yangtze River basin changes very much, maybe high and low, and since the river can carry so many large boats, it means that the water level is relatively deep, if the child swims to a deeper place, it is very easy to have accidents. <>

Moreover, the relevant staff also said that there are many reefs at the bottom of the Yangtze River, and the flow speed is very fast in some places, and it is very easy for children to be swept into it if they are not careful. And the place where the child swims is located in the lock area, and the nets are very dense and very dangerous. In the past, there were drowning incidents of children in the Yangtze River basin every year, so for the safety of children, parents must not let their children go directly to the wild waters to play.

Of course, there are safety hazards, because the hydrology of the Yangtze River estuary is complex and there are many ships. Not everyone can swim in the wilderness.

Swimming in the Yangtze River is a very dangerous thing, especially these children are not good at swimming and are prone to drowning, the state has to control these children, and they will also affect the waterway.
