Thousands of people have been evacuated in southeast China after heavy rains hammered the region over the weekend, triggering floods and deadly landslides, authorities and state media said Monday.
According to state-run broadcaster CCTV, over 35,000 people were evacuated as of Saturday. As of Monday morning, more than 10,000 people were evacuated in Meizhou, the hardest flood-hit city in Guangdong province. Seventeen waterways in the major Han River basin “recorded flooding above alert level,” including two rivers at record flood levels, according to the Ministry of Water Resources on Monday.
More than 130,000 households in the city and suburbs were without power as of Monday morning, while classes were suspended, CCTV reported. “Authorities are still trying to reach some towns and villages” in the area, CCTV said. Further upstream along the Han River, a flood alert was issued in Fujian province due to heavy rainfall, according to its provincial alert center. Four people were killed in a series of landslides in the coastal province, CCTV reported Monday.
