"Deadly Typhoon Triggers Extreme Rain in Beijing, Cars Washed Away and Red Alert Issued"

Heavy rainfall in Beijing, China, caused by the remnants of Typhoon Doksuri, turned roads into rivers, resulting in the deaths of at least two people and trapping hundreds more. Despite an overnight evacuation of tens of thousands, flooding persisted, with hundreds of roads becoming flooded and vehicles being swept away. The neighboring city of Tianjin and Hebei province were also affected. The storm caused widespread flooding in Fujian province over the weekend, driving hundreds of thousands from their homes. The Beijing observatory issued a red alert for heavy rainfall, and both airports in the capital canceled flights. Another typhoon, Khanun, is approaching and expected to strike China's coast this week.
