Hit with record rain, the Yan'an city government assists 780,000 local residents
The torrential rain in July was a big test for Yan'an.
The worst storm to hit the city since weather records began 68 years ago affected 13 counties and 158 towns, resulting in economic losses of some 12 billion yuan ($1.96 billion) and putting more than 1.5 million people at risk.
