Heavy Rainfall Leads to Fatalities and Missing Persons

CCTV news reported a tragic situation in Laiwu, a district within Jinan, Shandong province, where two fatalities have been confirmed and ten individuals remain missing following a period of intense rainfall. The severity of the weather has prompted immediate action from local authorities.

The affected area experienced a deluge of rain between midnight and 5:00 am on Tuesday. The rainfall was exceptionally heavy, with the highest recorded precipitation reaching an alarming 364 mm. This unprecedented amount of rainfall overwhelmed the local infrastructure and natural drainage systems.

The extreme downpour triggered devastating flash floods that impacted areas near the villages of Shiwuzi and Zhujiayu. The sudden surge of water caused significant damage, including the destruction of nineteen homes. The extent of the property damage underscores the severity of the event.

Rescue operations are currently underway, with teams working tirelessly to locate and account for the missing individuals. The search efforts are focused on areas most affected by the floods, and involve the deployment of specialized equipment and personnel. Simultaneously, post-disaster relief and recovery efforts are being implemented in a coordinated manner to provide assistance to those affected and begin the process of rebuilding. The focus is on providing immediate aid and establishing long-term support for the community.

Considering the intensity of the rain, are the search teams equipped with proper emergency equipment for searching and rescue?

I wonder what the cause of the drainage system failure was. Hopefully, its not because of corruption.
