At least 14 people have been killed in China as Typhoon Soudelor hits the country, state media says.

At least four others went missing as some parts of the country were hit by the heaviest rains in a century, the Xinhua news agency said on Sunday.

Most of the casualties, 12 of them, were reported in and around Wenzhou city in the eastern coastal province of Zhejiang, where downpours caused mudslides and several houses collapsed.
