The runway at Yantai Airport in China's Shandong Province suffered surface flooding of up to 50cm on 12 August, which led to airport workers attempting to push a Shandong Airlines Bombardier CRJ200LR regional jet to safety.

Many areas of China have been hit by flash flooding during this year's unusually severe rainy season.
