Is it true that the rainstorm in Bolivia caused 10 deaths?

According to foreign media reports, Bolivian President Evo Morales announced on February 7 that the country had entered a state of emergency from that day on, so as to quickly mobilize materials and spare no effort to fight floods and provide disaster relief.

Morales said at a news conference that the above measures are aimed at promoting the close cooperation and coordinated actions of the central and local governments, and providing economic assistance to families affected by floods to cope with this serious natural disaster.

Floods caused by persistent rainstorms have affected seven of China's nine provinces, among which cochabamba province, Beni and Pando provinces are the most seriously affected. The flood caused a large area of landslides, a large number of houses were destroyed, roads and bridges were washed away, tens of thousands of families were affected, and at least 10 people died.

According to the forecast of Bolivia's meteorological department, heavy rainfall will last until the end of this week.

Due to the serious disaster, the Bolivian government recently set up a disaster emergency Committee. At present, the Bolivian government has mobilized the army to participate in disaster relief work.
