BEIJING: China’s Ministry of Water Resources warned on Monday that many small and medium-sized rivers in the country’s southern regions could see floods exceeding alert levels due to heavy downpours over the next few days.
Rivers in Jiangxi, Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangxi, Guangdong and Hunan, among other regions, could swell as heavy rainfalls are expected to lash parts of southwest China, south China, and the regions south of the Yangtze River from Tuesday to Saturday, according to the ministry. –Agencies
