Typhoon Bavi brought heavy rain to parts of China’s eastern coast, prompting the
National Flood Control and Drought Relief Headquarters to activate a level-2
emergency response for Fujian and Zhejiang. The Ministry of Finance and Ministry
of Emergency Management have advanced 40 mln yuan of central natural-disaster
relief funds to support emergency evacuations, hazard removal,
secondary-disaster risk inspections and emergency remediation, and rescue
operations in the two provinces.
