Levees reinforced in NE China

Two soldiers pile up sandbags to reinforce levees at Jiejinkou village in Tongjiang city, Northeast China’s Heilongjiang province, Aug 24. Water levels are rising due to continuing rain in the province, and floods have been a serious threat to the levees and lives of hundreds of thousands of people. The provincial authorities have dispatched soldiers to help reinforce the levees in the area. [Photo/Xinhua]
