At least 30 people have died in Beijing, as heavy rains and flooding ravaged roads and houses in northern China. Recovery efforts are underway, and videos show rescuers combing through flooded areas for stranded residents and helicopters delivering aid supplies.

Almost a year’s worth of rain in recent days caused flooding and landslides that washed away cars, forced evacuations and knocked out power around the Chinese capital, killing at least 38 people by Tuesday and rescue and relief work continued.
