Beijing - Arab Today
At least 78 people died and 500 were injured in one of the deadliest natural disasters to hit east China's Jiangsu Province in Thursday, the official Xinhua news agency reported.
Extreme weather was reported in several townships in Funing and Sheyang counties in the suburbs of Yancheng. Gales of 125 km per hour battered several outer townships of Funing County.
Many houses collapsed in the gales. Villages were leveled. Trees and utility poles were uprooted, and motor vehicles were blown away. More deaths are feared, as search and rescue continued into Friday. The floods in southern China displaced nearly 200,000 people, state media said.
