The Chinese government successfully evacuated three million residents of southern Liaoning province, advising them to spend the night outdoors in tents at 2:00 PM.

• Haicheng Earthquake of 1975 On February 4, 1975, a devastating magnitude 7.0 earthquake struck Haicheng, China, resulting in approximately 10,000 fatalities. Remarkably, an evacuation warning was issued the day before the earthquake, based on several critical scientific observations: changes in land elevation, ground water level variations, widespread reports of unusual animal behavior, and numerous foreshocks. This early warning potentially saved thousands of lives by prompting residents to seek safer locations.
