China have evacuated over 82,000 residents in Beijing due to the threat of heavy rainfall, following the deaths of dozens in the capital's outskirt.

Floods are becoming more common and more dangerous in many parts of the world. Heavier rainfalls, unpredictable storms, and outdated infrastructure make it harder for cities to cope. In China, that challenge has reached a breaking point.

Beijing is getting drenched by another round of heavy rain, one week after torrential downpours across parts of the Chinese capital unleashed flooding that claimed at least 44 lives.
