Kuqa, Xinjiang:
Rescue operations continued on Sunday in China's northeastern and northwestern regions after some of the worst floods in a decade.
In Kuqa of Xinjiang province, floods triggered by heavy rain paralyzed traffic on a major highway, which has cut off people living in the surrounding mountainous area, Central Chinese Television (CCTV) reported.
The CCTV showed footage shot from a helicopter of a collapsed bridge sitting among plants on farming land mostly submerged by flood water.
China's northeastern Jilin province is also part of a long list of regions hit by what has been described as China's worst flood season in more than a decade.
At least 40 people were evacuated from the town of Baicheng on Saturday.
Floods and landslides triggered by torrential rains have left more than 100 people dead or missing in Jilin province over the past ten days, local civil affairs officials said on Sunday, according to the official Xinhua News Agency.
