​Beijing (PTI): At least 28 people were killed and three others remained missing in heavy rains and landslides in China, officials said on Saturday. Twenty people were killed after a massive landslide swept through a village in southwest China's Guizhou Province on Friday.
Three remained missing after intense rain triggered the landslide in Pianpo Village, Dafang County local officials said. Thirty people were buried by the debris. Seven of them were rescued alive but sustained injuries.
More than 800 soldiers and rescuers are working with excavators to search for the missing villagers, state-run Xinhua news agency reported. The landslide involved more than 95,000 cubic meters of debris and covered an area of 19,000 square metres.
Rain and storms have wreaked havoc across south China since June 27, leaving at least 34 people dead or missing nationwide, the Ministry of Civil Affairs said. Floods from swollen rivers forced more than 12,000 people to relocate overnight, the Hubei provincial disaster relief headquarters said.
Nationwide, 133 counties in 11 provincial-level regions -- including the provinces of Hubei, Jiangsu and Zhejiang -- have reported floods, landslides or mud flows.
