Lanzhou villagers forced to move due to pollution

Pipe lines cross the only road in the village with material having fallen off the ancient fittings. Higher than permitted levels of benzene have been discovered in the water under Jiajiapu, a village in Lanzhou city, Gansu province. The pollution has forced the village's more than 1000 residents to move. The relocation is expected to complete by April 16, 2014. [Fu Ding/Asianewsphoto]
