Powerful sandstorm peels wall off high-rise building in north China

Powerful sandstorm peeled off the outer wall of a residential building, blowing down trees and causing extremely low visibility in northern China.

The video was shot in Tongliao City in Inner Mongolia yesterday (April 17).

Several vehicles were damaged by the falling down wall and fallen trees blocked some streets.

The local meteorological observatory issued a yellow warning signal (lowest level) for the sandstorm.
