Since May 12, Xupu County of Huaihua City in Hunan Province has suffered from heavy rainstorms, which have led to the outbreak of flash floods and caused serious flood disasters. The only bridge that connects Shanxi Township to the outside world has been washed away by the flood; the subgrade of some roads has been destroyed, and the collapse of the road surface has interrupted the traffic, making the Shanxi Township an isolated island. More than 7000 local people are trapped and unable to go out. This torrential rain has affected 26 towns to different extents, and the population of affected areas has reached 223,500 people.
