Rescue operations underway in S China's Hainan as rain, flooding continue

01:45

Rescue efforts to relocate stranded residents across south China's island province of Hainan are in full swing following days of heavy rainfall triggered by the tail end of Typhoon Trami.

Over the past 24 hours, Hainan has been hit with a further 100 millimeters of rain, adding to the effects of last week's torrential downpours and flooding. In Qionghai City, one of the worst-affected regions in the last round of storms, 25,700 households are living without power and 22 roads are blocked.
