After the flood

The heaviest rainstorm in 61 years on Saturday was a big test for Beijing. Almost the entire city was flooded and 10 people died.

However, thanks to the joint efforts of police officers, firefighters and ordinary residents, all those who were stranded by floods have now been rescued.

More than 7,000 police officers and more than 5,000 firefighters rushed out to all corners of the city to help residents in difficulty. At almost every hazardous location, police officers were on hand to guide the evacuation of residents to safer places.
