Soldiers evacuate the local residents trapped by flood water in Xiantao, central China's Hubei Province, July 28, 2010. The Dujiatai flood diversion project was prepared to divert flood in an attempt to release the flood pressure for the lower reaches of Han River including Wuhan, capital city of Hubei province. More than 5,000 people in the Dujiatai flood diversion area were evacuated. The strongest flood peak of Han river this year may reach Xiantao Wednesday afternoon, according to the local authority.
