BEIJING, July 6 (Xinhua) -- China has allocated 150,000 disaster relief items to its southern Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, as relief work continues following rainstorm-triggered floods affecting the regional capital Nanning, as well as areas like Guigang, the Ministry of Emergency Management (MEM) said Monday.

The supplies, which included tents, folding beds, summer quilts, summer clothing and family emergency kits, were jointly allocated by the office of the national commission for disaster prevention, reduction and relief and the MEM, together with the National Food and Strategic Reserves Administration.

An emergency supply mechanism involving government agencies and social organizations has been activated, with relief groups and charitable foundations coordinating donations, including 5,000 family relief kits, 20,000 emergency lighting devices, and more than 120,000 items such as food, drinking water and daily necessities.

Affected by Typhoon Maysak, the 10th typhoon of the year, parts of Guangxi have experienced multiple geological disasters since July 3, the ministry said.

Heavy downpours to extremely heavy rainstorms are expected in parts of Guangxi from Monday to Friday, bringing high risks of further geological disasters in some areas, according to meteorological forecasts, making disaster prevention and response work challenging.

The ministry on Monday upgraded the national geological disaster emergency response for Guangxi from Level IV to Level III.

On the same day, China's Ministry of Water Resources upgraded the flood-control emergency response for Guangxi from Level III to Level II.

Water levels at 53 rivers in Guangxi exceeded warning levels between 8 a.m. Sunday and 8 a.m. Monday. Four small and medium-sized rivers recorded their largest floods since meteorological records began.

China has a four-tier emergency response system, with level I being the most severe.
