A landslide in Huanggang city buried nine people, among them a 3-year-old child, early on July 8 in China’s Hubei Province, amid some of the heaviest flooding the country has seen in decades.
Rescuers recovered five bodies, while an injured survivor, an 81-year-old woman, has been hospitalized, according to Chinese state media. Local authorities evacuated more than 40 villagers from the area while the search continued for those still believed buried in the debris.
