A sandstorm engulfed cities and counties throughout Kashi Prefecture in northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region on Tuesday, shrouding areas in mushroom-like clouds of dust and sand.

Kashi City and counties like Shache, Yecheng, Zepu and Yopurga all suffered from low road visibility and high wind speed that heavily damaged homes and trees.
