Three have been confirmed dead after a landslide covered an expressway in southwest China's Guizhou Province, rescuers said on Monday.

Three bodies were pulled from a car buried by the landslide and the search team continue to pick their way through the 80,000 cubic meters of debris.

The landslide occurred at 3:40 p.m. Sunday at a section in Xishui County, blocking the expressway that links Chengdu, capital of Sichuan Province, to Zunyi City in Guizhou.

More than 700 have been mobilized for the rescue efforts.
