Typhoon Rusa’s death toll rises to 113
Authorities said it would take a month to clean up after Typhoon Rusa unleashed winds of up to 127mph across South Korea’s east and south coasts, leaving a swathe of destruction before turning back to sea on Sunday.
Rescue workers in the eastern resort city of Kangnung, which bore the brunt of Rusa, toiled to reach cars buried under landslides as hopes of finding survivors faded and attention turned to providing water and food for hundreds of evacuees.
