Six people in China's Zhejiang province were reported missing after their houses were buried by a landslide on Sunday.

The landslide occurred in Jiande city, following heavy downpour in the area, officials said, adding that rescuers are searching for the missing people, Xinhua news agency reported.

More heavy rain will batter south and east China in the coming days after storms brought floods to several regions in the past week, the meteorological authority said.
