The death toll from torrential rains that caused flooding and mudslides in Japan climbed to 10 on Oct. 26, with three others missing, public broadcaster NHK reported, just two weeks after the region was hit by a powerful typhoon.
Landslides ripped through waterlogged areas in Chiba and Fukushima prefectures, in eastern and northeastern Japan, on Friday. In some places, a month’s worth of rain fell in just half a day.
