Rescue workers in northwestern China continue to search for survivors after massive landslides swept through the region on August 8. Heavy rains and flash flooding from the weekend triggered muddy landslides that engulfed villages and roads. More than 1,100 people have been killed in the disaster, and at least 627 people are still missing, local officials say. About 45,000 people have been forced to evacuate their homes.
