Polluted water in Songhua River reaches Harbin, the capital of northeastern Heilongjiang province November 24, 2005. A stretch of potentially lethally polluted river water headed towards one of China's biggest cities on Thursday after an explosion at a petrochemical plant. China said on Wednesday the blast had caused “major pollution” in the Songhua River from which Harbin and home to nine million people, draws its drinking water.
