Trucks carrying water and food streamed into a Chinese city hit hard by flooding that killed at least 63 people, while soldiers laid sandbags to fill gaps in river dikes that left neighborhoods under water. Residents cleared debris after the record rains.

Residents cleared away mud, wrecked cars and other debris after record rains that started Tuesday and flooded streets and disrupted train service in Henan province. The rains have subsided, but some neighborhoods were still waiting for water up to two meters deep to drain.

The city was hit as the rains moved north from Zhengzhou, where flash floods killed more than 50 people, including 12 in the inundated subway system.Business owner Han Yuan and her employees loaded boxes of disinfectant onto a truck for delivery to the city’s Fengquan district, one of the worst-hit areas. “This is the city that raised me, and every one of us is devoting all we have to protect this city,” she said.

Lu Qinghan, the owner of a recycling station, estimated she lost 30,000 to 40,000 yuan , at least one third of her annual income, after floods washed away some of the station’s waste material.
