Record Rainfall in Northeastern China Leaves Dozens Dead and Over a Million Displaced

More than a million people have been displaced and dozens have died after record rainfall caused severe flooding in northeastern China's Hebei province. The storm, remnants of Typhoon Doksuri, also affected the neighboring cities of Beijing and Tianjin, causing extensive damage and stranding residents. The heavy rainfall, the worst in Beijing in 140 years, has highlighted the region's vulnerability to extreme weather events, which experts warn will become more frequent due to climate change. Evacuated residents have been relocated to makeshift shelters, while authorities work to manage floodwaters and provide relief efforts. The economic damages from the storm are estimated to be around $2.2 billion.
