40 killed in Chinese hailstorm

Forty people were killed when a brief but violent hailstorm and torrential rain swept through a mountainous region of north-west China, the local government said on Sunday.

In just one hour dozens of people were killed, and dozens more injured, while more residents are missing and tens of thousands have had to be moved from their homes after rain and hail battered Min county on Thursday.
