"Flooding forced the evacuation of more than 250,000 people in the northern China along its border with North Korea, state media said Monday.

 

Heavy rains over the last several days caused the Yalu river, which marks the border, to breach its banks, although the water level had started to fall late Sunday, the official Xinhua News Agency state media said Monday."
