Hagibis: At Least 35 Dead, 15 Missing, Levee Collapses On 21 Rivers (Oh, And A 5.7 Earthquake, Too)
EDIT
Rescue services jumped into action early in the morning, with helicopters plucking stranded people from balconies and roofs. At least 35 people were killed, with 15 people reported missing and at least 100 injured, according to the Kyodo news agency. Deaths were expected to mount as swollen rivers rushed through flooded neighborhoods.
More than 370,000 households were without power, and at least 15,000 homes were without water, Yoshihide Suga, Japans chief cabinet secretary, told reporters, adding that the country was taking every measure to recover.
At least two deaths and several landslides occurred before the typhoon made landfall, and a 5.7-magnitude earthquake shook Chiba, east of Tokyo, on Saturday evening just before the storm hit.
What areas were hit hardest?
At least 142 rivers flooded, NHK said, after record-breaking rains. In Nagano Prefecture, northwest of Tokyo, a levee burst on the Chikuma River, flooding a wide area of Nagano City. Levees on 21 rivers across the flood zone collapsed, according to NHK and information provided by local governments.
