BEIJING (AP) - Record rainfall this week triggered floods, landslides and mud flows that killed 152 people in China and forced the evacuation of hundreds of thousands, state media reported Sunday.
Since the start of the annual rainy season in June, floods have hit nearly half of China's regions and killed at least 400 people, the official Xinhua News Agency said.
Worst-hit this week was southern China's Yunnan province, where rain triggered floods and landslides from Wednesday to Saturday.
