Many lend a hand in flood area

Five days later, Yuyao is slowly recovering from its worst storm in a century as relief materials, volunteers, health experts and technicians continue to pour into the city to help.

Heavy rainfall battered the coastal city earlier this week, paralyzing the city's transportation, cutting off its power and tap water supply and leaving 70 percent of its areas inundated in up to neck-deep floodwaters.

Following the disaster, rescue teams from across the country, organized by governments or non-governmental organizations, continued to gather in the city in northeast Zhejiang province. They brought food, clean water and other supplies and handed them out to victims.
