Over 2,000 tourists are still stranded in Northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region as of Saturday evening with over 92,000 tourists having already been evacuated from the region's 15 5A-level scenic spots since August 2, due to the sudden COVID-19 flare-up in the region since the end of July that terminated tourists' travel agenda in advance.
Statistics obtained by the local prefecture and city governments showed that a total of 2,003 tourists from other provinces had been stranded across Xinjiang region as of 8 pm on Saturday, with the majority distributed in the Ili Kazak autonomous prefecture, Turpan city, Kashi prefecture, Urumqi city, and the Bortala Mongolian autonomous prefecture, according to the press briefing held by the Xinjiang regional government on Saturday.
