About 700 people missing in southern Taiwan after Typhoon Morakot have been found alive, army officials say.
People from several villages are said to have made it to higher ground before mud and rock engulfed their homes.
Among the survivors found by rescue teams are 200 from Hsiaolin village, reports the Taiwan Central News Agency.
However, despite frantic rescue efforts in Hsiaolin and elsewhere since the weekend, hundreds of people are still missing, feared buried under the mud.
Military helicopters have been ferrying villagers out of communities cut off by the storms and floods after roads and bridges were washed away.
"We have found around 700 people alive in three villages last night and 26 more this morning. We are deploying 25 helicopters to evacuate them," said Maj Gen Richard Hu, a senior official in the rescue effort.
The typhoon struck Taiwan at the weekend, killing at least 60 people and causing the worst flooding in 50 years.
'Save my village'
The BBC's Cindy Sui at Chishan in rural southern Taiwan, the centre of the rescue effort, says the authorities fear that hundreds more people could still be trapped.
In Hsiaolin alone, rescue workers said about 100 were unaccounted for as of Tuesday and thought possibly to have been buried alive.
Our correspondent says family members from surrounding areas have been converging on Hsiaolin, demanding that helicopters be sent to their villages too.
Some are carrying signs that read, "Save my village".
The search for survivors has been a slow process as the only way in and out of the villages is by helicopter, our correspondent adds. source: bbc.com
