Rescuers transfer a trapped villager via a rope rescue system in Kaiyuan Town of Shulan City, northeast China's Jilin Province, Aug. 6, 2023.

When the flood hit here, the villagers in Xinkai Village of Kaiyuan Town moved to the resettlement sites one after another, but Qu Fengxia, 74, became the last trapped person in Xinkai Village because she was ill in bed all the year round and was inconvenient to move.
