Swarms of massive insects kill more than 40 and injure 1,600 in China

                        

Swarms of deadly hornets have killed more than 40 people and injured more than 1,600 in northern China.

At least 37 patients are in a critical or serious condition in hospitals, according to Shaanxi provincial government. 

Victims of the attack have been left with deep, dark craters in their skin the size of bullet wounds.

God have mercy. Reminds me of the biblical locust that infested Egypt at the time of Moses.
