Typhoon Jebi leaves trail of destruction across Japan

In Japan, at least nine people have been reported killed by Typhoon Jebi, the worst storm to hit the country in 25 years. Jebi has left a trail of destruction across the west of the country, hitting major cities like Kyoto and Osaka.  

Flights, trains and ferries were cancelled but thousands of



passengers stranded at Osaka's international airport have since been evacuated. Evacuation advisories have been issued for more than 1.2 million people. Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has urged people to evacuate early and has ordered his government to take all necessary measures to protect the residents.
