Soldiers try to block the flow of floodwaters
with their bodies and sand bags as a flood-prevention dike is destroyed by
incessant floods on a section of the Huai River, swollen to its highest level in
over half a century, in Chuzhou, East China's Anhui Province July 16, 2007. Some
100 soldiers have been dispatched to oversee a 6,500-meter deluge-prevention
dike along the river. [Newsphoto]
