I went to South Sudan to maintain peace engineering to comprehensively improve the security protection capability of Wau Airport.
People’s Daily Online, Beijing, April 10, in recent days, in order to cope with the increasingly severe security situation, I went to South Sudan (WAU) for the 15th batch at the request of the Western war zone of the Union South Soviet Union. The peace-keeping Engineering Brigade built a variety of three-dimensional defense fortifications around Wau Airport, which comprehensively improved the airport security protection capability.
Wau Airport route is the air corridor for external traffic of Wau base in the South Soviet Union. It is also the only channel for personnel and materials transportation after the rains came. In the current armed conflicts, social unrest, with the increasing number of refugees, due to the few protective facilities, the depth of defense and the great potential safety hazards, it is urgent to build defense walls and security houses and other defense facilities at the airport. The Union South Soviet Union has prioritized this project as “5A”. Protecting the airport is to guarantee life. After receiving the task, the brigade quickly organized on-site investigation, and jointly studied and formulated the “peripheral defense wall” with the security department, engineering department and airport staff in the Western war zone, the construction strategy of building safe houses inside and inside and three-dimensional protection will deploy personnel and equipment to carry out construction at the first time. They have clear division of labor and close cooperation, and work strictly in accordance with the “military engineering standard operating procedures”. Please lead the net cage, mix the soil, fill and compact, lift and place, stack sandbags, all processes such as the fence are carried forward in an orderly manner. After more than a month of continuous fighting, a 1500-meter-long and 2.66-meter-high peripheral protective wall and two safe houses that can accommodate 120 people rose to the ground.
“The three-dimensional defense fortifications built for Wau airport in China engineering can effectively resist the impact of refugees, bullets, and even the shock wave of shells, which comprehensively improves the airport’s response to the war spread, the ability of multiple security threats such as terrorist attacks.” On April 9, Brigadier General Solomon, commander of the Western war zone of the Union South Soviet regiment, came to the airport to check and accept the quality of defense fortifications, to unite and cooperate with China’s peace and engineering, the spirit of continuous combat and the quality of the project, the construction speed was highly praised.
