Beijing city officials admitted on Thursday (31 July) that they were not prepared for the torrential rains that flooded areas of the capital, killing 44 people and leaving 9 others missing. Large areas of northern China suffered flooding and heavy rains that led to the evacuation of tens of thousands of people. Dozens of roads were closed, villages were left without power and homes were flooded by the storms across Beijing and neighboring provinces.
