Relief efforts underway after heavy rainfall in China's Fujian

Sanitary workers clear mud from a street in Huating Town of Putian, southeast China's Fujian Province, Sept. 7, 2026. As heavy rainfall caused by Typhoon Saudel in Putian concluded on Saturday, floodwaters gradually receded in inundated areas of this city. Local authorities have since shifted to post-disaster recovery, undertaking tasks including water and power restoration, sanitation and disinfection, as well as the resettlement of affected residents.
