Typhoon Jebi

Typhoon Jebi is the strongest storm to hit Japan in 25 years and has torn roofs off houses, damaged tankers and tens of thousands of people have been left without power. Tragically, 11 people are confirmed dead and our thoughts with all those affected.

The powerful storm brought strong winds and heavy rain to Japan and at its peak it was briefly a super typhoon, meaning wind speeds exceeded 150mph.

Violent winds ripped away part of the ceiling from Kyoto station and toppled scaffolding on a building in Osaka. Elsewhere, cars were turned on their sides and strewn across roads.
