China floods: people trapped on subway trains

Newsday

Available for over a year

Underground stations flooded, cars and people swept away, bodies seen floating in the water. We'll get an update on China's flash floods in the city of Zhengzhou, a city of 10 million. The city saw more rain fall in one hour than the amount which fell in a day in Germany's deadly floods last week. Following those floods, the US heat dome and forest fires, and the extreme heat warnings in the UK, America's Climate envoy John Kerry says world leaders have a hundred days to save the next hundred years. And we also have a report on the ongoing violence in Darfur, Sudan after the departure of the peacekeepers.
