		</div><p>The death toll from a powerful typhoon that hit south-eastern China rose to 33 on Sunday as rescue workers used rubber dinghies to evacuate stranded people while swift currents swept by homes.</p>
<p>China’s emergency broadcasting network said 16 people were still missing in Zhejiang province, where 32 died.</p>
<p>It reported one more death in the neighbouring Anhui province.</p>
<p>Typhoon Lekima triggered a landslip and floods after making landfall in Zhejiang, about 190 miles south of Shanghai, on Saturday.</p>
<p>Most of the victims were in a village in Yongjia county, where a landslip blocked a river that then poured into the small town, killing 23 people. Nine others were unaccounted for.</p>
<p>Footage on state broadcaster CCTV showed buildings had been smashed by the raging waters and workers using backhoes to clean up the debris.</p>
<p>To the north, parts of the city of Linhai remained flooded on Sunday, with water reaching up to the top of the first floor of buildings, leaving only treetops sticking out.</p>
<p>CCTV showed people being rescued with life vests and boats in nearby Xianju county.</p>
<p>Lekima, which has been downgraded to a tropical storm, is expected to dump heavy rain on China’s north-east in the coming days as it moves up the Pacific coast.</p>
<p>It forced the closure of Shanghai Disneyland on Saturday.</p>
