The search for other missing persons continues. The tidal rains that hit the north of China this week have so far claimed at least 48 victims and tens of thousands of people had to evacuate.
Ten people who have been missing from Sunday after the disappearance of a bus in the Chinese province of Šan-Si is dead. On Wednesday it was confirmed by the state media there and reminded that the region was hit by heavy rains this week. According to the AFP and Sin-Chua report, TASR reports this.
The bus transported 14 passengers and, according to the rescuers, disappeared near Ta-Tchung on Sunday early morning local time. “The bodies of ten missing persons have been found. The search for other missing continues,” said Chinese agency Sin-Chua.
AFP recalls that the tidal rains that hit the north of China this week have so far claimed at least 48 victims and tens of thousands of people had to evacuate. Many roads have been closed by the authorities and some areas remained without electricity. Extreme weather also caused material damage.
Perhaps the most affected area was the Chinese metropolis. Heavy rain corresponding to the almost year of precipitation in Beijing caused floods and landslides, which claimed at least 38 victims by Tuesday.
In the neighboring province of Che-PEJ, they discovered four more dead on Tuesday, the CCTV state television reported after eight people were missing after the landslide in the rural part of the Luan-Pching district in this province.
