Parents across the country watch live updates, worried about the wellbeing of their children trapped inside the inundated classrooms. The crisis traces back to Typhoon Saudel, which made landfall on September 3, bringing torrential rain to China's coastal regions.

Reuters and CGTN reported that the storm triggered flash floods across Fujian and neighboring provinces, prompting emergency alerts and evacuation orders. A higher typhoon warning was later considered as the system showed a rare resurgence, intensifying the deluge that swept into inland areas.

With rescue operations ongoing, authorities have yet to announce when the stranded students will be safely evacuated.
