China braces for rainfall in southern area
The Office of the State Flood Control and Drought Relief Headquarters and the Ministry of Emergency Management emphasized on Saturday the urgency of guarding against flood risks amid heavy rainfall expected in southern China. These downpours are set to sweep across multiple southern regions from April 26 to 29, covering a wide area and advancing rapidly, according to a meeting held by the two authorities together with meteorological and water conservancy departments. The meeting underscored the need to reinforce patrols and emergency responses for reservoirs and dams. Reservoirs with known safety hazards must stay empty during the main flood season.
