This is the dramatic moment a mother and daughter were rescued after being swept away by a river in Inner Mongolia, China.

Footage shows the two clinging to a power line pole after their car was carried into a riverbed during heavy rainfall in Tongliao.

Having escaped the submerged vehicle, they were stranded, holding onto an electricity post amidst the raging waters.

Firefighters quickly organised a rescue operation using ropes.

The incident occurred due to torrential rains that caused significant flooding on local roads.

Firemen first secured the child, transporting her to the riverbank before returning to assist the exhausted mother, who was relieved to be rescued.
