The death toll from record-breaking rains across northern China has risen to at least 78, as authorities warn of more flooding and another storm approaches the country
THE DEATH TOLL from record-breaking rains across northern China has risen to at least 78, as authorities warn of more flooding and another storm approaches the country.
The deluge followed weeks of historic heat, with scientists saying such extreme weather events are being exacerbated by climate change. And more than a dozen people were killed in northeastern Jilin province after torrential rain last week. Emergency alert levels are being held in place across northern China, Xinhua said, with key riverways being closely monitored.
The Chinese government on Wednesday said it would allocate one billion yuan to compensate residents in areas that had been inundated to control flood levels in downstream areas.
