China's state media say 94,000 people have been evacuated from the north China port city of Dandong after heavy rain caused the Yalu river to breach its banks, flooding low-lying parts of the city.
The official Xinhua News Agency said on Sunday more rain was expected to pound the region, which borders North Korea.
North Korea's Korean Central News Agency said torrential rain and water from the overflowing Yalu swamped at least five villages near Sinuiju, the city opposite Dandong. Much of North Korea's trade with the world passes through Sinuiju.
The Dandong flooding is the latest disaster in China's worst flood season for a decade. Landslides and floods have killed more than 2,500 people across the country this year
