Tornado in China's Guangzhou kills five and injures 33

A tornado struck the city of Guangzhou in southern China during the 27-28 April weekend.
The disaster has led to the death of five people and has left 33 injured (Source: Xinhua).
Authorities say 141 factory buildings were damaged but no residential houses collapsed.
The extreme weather was the latest to hit China’s industrial heartland after torrential rain last week caused serious flooding and killed four people in Guangdong.
The China Met Agency is warning that heavy rain and strong storms are likely to continue until the end of the month.
