Typhoon Dujuan Leaves Four Dead, Six Missing Near Tokyo

At least four people have been confirmed dead and six others remain missing after Typhoon Dujuan swept through the Tokyo region, bringing record-breaking rainfall that set off landslides, flooding and widespread transport disruption.

Search and rescue operations were under way in Chiba and Kanagawa Prefectures, where a series of landslides struck residential areas. In Kanagawa, southwest of Tokyo, flooded roads and flight cancellations caused extensive delays.

The typhoon approached eastern Japan's Pacific coast on Monday, triggering landslides near the capital as it advanced. Aerial footage from Chiba showed rescue boats navigating flooded residential neighbourhoods, with people wading through the water on foot.

In Kanagawa, a noodle shop worker was seen setting up a board to keep water from entering the premises as staff cleared muddy water from the shop. "It is what it is," the worker, Kozo Inoguchi, said.

Authorities have not yet provided a final assessment of the damage as rescue and recovery efforts continue.
