All eight people reported missing in a sudden mountain torrent in Guangxi, south China, have been confirmed dead, with the last body found 25 kilometres downstream, authorities said.
Authorities in south China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region have confirmed the deaths of eight residents who went missing during a mountain torrent last week. The incident occurred in Sanshe village, Longsheng county, on Friday, according to local officials cited by state media on Thursday.
All victims have been identified through DNA testing. The final body was recovered on Wednesday, found approximately 25 kilometres (15.5 miles) downstream from the site of the disaster, Xinhua News Agency reported.
Local authorities have not yet released further details on the circumstances surrounding the sudden flood or the response efforts. Mountain torrents, typically triggered by intense rainfall, are common in the region’s rugged terrain, especially during the rainy season, and can cause severe damage with little warning.
Emergency services have reportedly concluded search and rescue operations. Investigations into the cause and management of the disaster are ongoing.
