15 Tweets, die das schier unglaubliche Ausmass der Fluten in Zhengzhou zeigen
Zhengzhou in der Provinz Henan wurde besonders hart von den Regenfällen getroffen.

First Europe, now China (Zhengzhou, to be specific).

Obwohl zuerst berichtet wurde, dass alle Passagiere überlebt hätten, sind wohl mindestens 12 Menschen gestorben.
The videos shared on Chinese social media about the floodings in Henan following the heavy rain really show the severity of the situation. These are some of them. pic.twitter.com/zZMKxvAGAX

Dieser Tweet lässt weitere Zweifel über die Berichterstattung aufkommen. Glaubt man dieser Person, dürfte die Todeszahl weitaus höher liegen als zunächst berichtet.
"The wireless service is out of service. Cops came to warn us not to send out any info about the flood. Doctors are gone and none in hospital. Mr Niu said more than 100 deaths in his community. Corpses are everywhere and no one cares. We are scared to death every min." #Zhengzhou pic.twitter.com/cFbCu21zrD
