1931 Yellow River Flood




Later in the same month, the Yangtze also flooded.

1931 was the last natural flood of the river of this severity. In 1933 , around 18,000 people were killed by less devastating, but still widespread flooding, while the 1938 Yellow River Flood was caused by Chinese Kuomintang forces deliberately damaging Levee s in an attempt to disrupt Japanese advances in the Second Sino-Japanese War .
