A further 27 people have been reported missing since Typhoon Doksuri triggered widespread flooding in the north of the country.

Authorities in the capital have closed more than 100 mountain roads and evacuated at least 52,000 people from their homes in recent days. The military is coordinating rescue missions and delivering aid to residents in the worst-hit suburbs amid one of the strongest storms to hit China in years. Meteorologists have warned of further flooding as heavy rain continues.
