As devastating floods begin to recede in China’s Henan Province, several cities are still underwater after one week. Citizens in the city of Weihui have used social media to plea for water, food, and shelter in the face of minimal government assistance since July 22.
Flooding affected half of Weihui’s 600,000 residents, and displaced about one-third of the locals, according to a statement from the Henan Provincial government on Wednesday. Locals told the Chinese Epoch Times that some buildings are still submerged to the second floor.
