China Faces “Once-in-50-Year” Flood Disaster: Over 80,000 Evacuated as Entire Regions Go Underwater
China is now facing what may be the worst flooding disaster in its recorded history.
Rongjiang, Guizhou – A devastating flood is sweeping across southern China, forcing more than 80,000 people to evacuate, sweeping away
tens of thousands of homes, and turning entire neighborhoods into rubble.
In Rongjiang County, Guizhou Province, water levels have surged past 837 feet (over 255 meters), swallowing entire communities, shutting down traffic, and destroying critical infrastructure. Roads that once bustled with life are now vast, muddy lakes.
Around 50,000 residents returning home after evacuation are now faced with scenes straight out of an apocalypse: destroyed houses, lost belongings, and neighborhoods buried in mud and ruins.
Local authorities have called it a “once-in-50-year flood.” But many residents insist: “We’ve never seen anything like this in our lifetime.”
