Hundreds of rescuers are involved in a desperate search for some 20 vehicles missing after a highway bridge in China collapsed during torrential rains, killing at least 11 people.
Chinese president Xi Jinping has been briefed on the operation and demanded "all-out efforts" from rescuers to find any survivors. China's national fire and rescue authority said it had dispatched a team involving over 850 officials as well as 90 vehicles, 20 boats and 41 drones to join the search.
The highway bridge in Shangluo, a city in the northwestern Shaanxi province, collapsed at around 8.40pm local time on Friday evening, sending an estimated 25 vehicles plunging into the swollen river below.
Authorities said 11 bodies had been recovered from five of those vehicles as of yesterday morning, but as the day wore on Xinhua news agency reported that there had been no more cars recovered, and an estimated 30 people are still missing, feared dead.
