At least 20 people were killed and 19 were missing after heavy rains triggered by the storm submerged roads and deluged neighbourhoods in China with mud.
A video showing the dramatic rescue of a man from a swollen river in China's Hebei province has appeared on social media. The man was swept away by a local river while he was still in his car as Typhoon Doksuri caused flash flooding in parts of country. Firefighters used a helicopter to rescue the man, who was flowing in one direction due to the rapidly gushing water of the raging river. This is one of the strongest storms to hit China in many years.
