Southern China is experiencing continuous heavy rainfall, putting the Pearl River basin on high alert. In response, China's Ministry of Water Resources is ramping up precautionary measures to mitigate the impact of the persistent downpours.
Forecasts indicate that from Wednesday to Friday, heavy rainstorms will continue to sweep across the southern and southwestern regions of the country. The Pearl River basin, a critical area for both agriculture and industry, is particularly vulnerable to flooding during this period.
Local authorities are actively monitoring the situation, ensuring that communities are prepared and that emergency services are on standby to respond swiftly to any flooding incidents. The ongoing efforts aim to protect residents and minimize disruptions to daily life and economic activities in the region.
