BEIJING — Flooding forced the evacuation of more than 250,000 people in northern China along its border with North Korea, state media said this morning.

Heavy rains over the past several days caused the Yalu river, which marks the border, to breach its banks, although the water level had started to fall late Sunday, the official Xinhua News Agency state media said today.

It said a couple in their 70s and a mother and son were killed.

The flooding is the latest disaster in China’s worst flood season in more than a decade.
