Continuous rainstorms have caused flood and geological disasters in the regions, and the RCSC has dispatched working teams to assist with flood control and disaster relief efforts, according to the charity organization on Thursday.
Local RCSC branches have also mobilized rescuers to work on the frontline, conducting rescue operations and facilitating resettlement for those in need, said the RCSC.
