Rescue efforts as landslide topples buildings due to heavy rain in Fujian, China

A massive landslide triggered by deadly Typhoon Morakot toppled at least six apartment buildings and buried an unknown number of residents in eastern China.
The official Xinhua News Agency said the landslide in the town of Pengxi, in Zhejiang province's Wenzhou city, was triggered by heavy rains carried by the storm Morakot, which has killed at least six people and left three missing in mainland China.
