People hit by flood find many sources of help

Liu Meilan and her husband have been living in a classroom for almost a week after leaving their home in Xinxiang, Henan province, due to heavy downpours.

However, they are satisfied with their temporary accommodations. "The conditions in the school are good enough for now, and I will go home to clean up once the floodwaters subside," Liu said.

From July 17 to Saturday, a total of 132 townships in Xinxiang were hit by rainstorms and floods, affecting more than 2 million people, according to the Xinxiang office of the provincial flood control and drought relief headquarters.
