ANKARA (AA) - Six people were found dead on Saturday after going missing a week ago during landslides triggered by massive rains in China’s southeastern province of Fujian, state media reported.
Rescue workers found the lifeless bodies after an extensive search since losing contact with the victims on June 16, state-run broadcaster CCTV said.
Heavy rains have struck southern China since the annual flooding season got an early start.
Some 47 people have been killed in China’s southern Guangdong province over the past three days, where torrential rains triggered flash floods and mudslides, destroying thousands of low-lying houses and damaged roads and crops.
