Typhoon Doksuri has swept northwards over China, bringing heavy rainfall to Beijing and the surrounding areas. Days of torrential downpours triggered catastrophic flooding, destroying roads and trapping residents across the region. Subscribe to Guardian News on YouTube ► State media reports at least 21 deaths caused by the floods, as authorities expect floodwaters to take a month to recede in the worst-affected areas. Local residents teamed with the military to evacuate those who had been trapped inside their homes since the rain began. Footage circulating on social media shows cars being swept away and collapsed roads. The extreme weather comes as China's foreign ministry denied reports that it had obstructed discussions on tackling climate change at G20 meetings in India a week ago.
