Meanwhile, more than 220,000 people in Sichuan Province have been evacuated from low-lying areas following a recent flood that inundated the disaster-prone region on Wednesday.
The flood, the third in 10 days, affected more than 580,000 residents, destroying some 3,200 houses and inundating 17,733 hectares of crops in Quxian county in the city of Dazhou, local authorities said.
Water levels on the Qujiang River, which flows through the county, have also exceeded the warning level.
“I was lucky to be saved by the government officials. But my crops were washed away by the floods. I feel helpless,” Liu Shaoqun, a 57-year-old farmer from the village of Shanxing, said.
Local officials have sent food, drinking water, other relief supplies and medical workers to flood-hit areas in Sichuan Province.
