Beijing: Floods in southern China have forced thousands of people to flee from their homes due to floods. There are chances of more rain, officials said.

Guangdong’s construction centre has shut down all classes, office work and public transport once in a while due to rising water and the threat of landslides in the area.

Around five lakh people’s homes have been damaged in the neighbouring state of Jiangxi and their lives are in danger. Considerable damage has also been reported in the cities of Shaoguan, Heyuan and Meizhou in Guangdong. Roads have been broken in some parts of the city due to heavy rains. Rescue crews in Zhejiang evacuated people trapped in the water by boats.
