CHENGDU, July 6 (Xinhua) — Four people were missing after mudslides hit southwest China's Sichuan Province on Friday, local authorities said Saturday.
The geological disaster prevention and control headquarters of Danba County, Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, said the earthquake hit two villages in the county at around 5:50 p.m. on Friday, after the entire county had been battered by heavy rain since Wednesday.
The water that accumulated in the mountains first led to a flood, and then to mudflows that damaged houses, flooded agricultural land, cut off telecommunications and power supplies, blocking some roads.
County authorities immediately launched emergency response modes for geological disasters and floods.
Rescuers continue searching for missing persons. -0-
