    At least 179 dead as Japan reels from its worst flood in decades
    1 hour ago

    Japan is still reeling from one of its worst flooding disasters in decades, which has killed at least 179 people and left 70 missing.

    Torrential rains triggered landslides and floods in central and western areas. More than 8 million people have been ordered to evacuate their homes.

    The rain has relented but the country is still struggling to deal with the extensive damage left in its wake.

    This is the highest death toll caused by rainfall in Japan since 1982.
