They have all been found and rescued 4 hrs ago. But Al Jazeera won't talk about it 😂😂

I hope they succeed in rescuing these miners. When there is a tragedy like this it is inappropriate to mention politics. Our thoughts should be with these human beings their families and welfare,

[Cam-nqbr]

Good ol Xinjiang, where slavery still is practiced

[kenfu]

I hope that justice will be achieved in the case of Jamal Khashoggi and the Yemen war crimes

For once, something with the name Xinjiang doesn't trigger outside interventionists. A breath of fresh air.

The Chinese Government will not bother, as lots of other Chinese to continue mining.

[PedPrphetMHammad]

Lol .
Chinese propaganda in Xingiang again under pressure.

[CatsFerDays]

Why would you put a mine inside a valley of mountains lol? People are so dumb lol

[draz]

the only "developed" country where mining accidents are normal.. it tells you how much CCP cares about its people

[aliraj]

If it happened in Bangladesh the government will let the media know after the workers were dead.

[arizahmed]

Dear Al Jazeera, it's NOT "China's Xinjiang" .

[jont]

Didn't this happen like months ago?

[antonylambert]

The Chinese dragon should learn a bitter lesson
