Water supply for 800,000 people in a central China city has been disrupted since Wednesday morning after a pipe burst forced waterworks to stop operation, local authorities said.

A major water pipe burst Wednesday morning in Zhengzhou City, capital of central China's Henan Province. The Shiyuan Waterworks -- owner of the pipe, had to suspend operation in case the water would flow backwards to the plant and contaminate water supply.
