Central and southern China are experiencing severe flooding due to continuous torrential rains. Hunan Province's city of Changde has been particularly affected, with over 100 millimetres of rainfall inundating 814 townships across 14 cities and prefectures. The heavy rains have triggered mountain torrents, resulting in five deaths, one dead, and eight missing. China's top meteorological authority has issued this year's first red alert for heavy rainfall, warning of strong precipitation in the southern regions this week. Additionally, 33 rivers nationwide have exceeded warning levels, prompting intensified disaster control efforts. The high precipitation has led to loss of life and flood damage to crops.
