Deadly Jebi storm cuts off Kansai airport near Osaka, triggering thousands of evacuations. Japan has been hit by its most powerful storm in 25 years, killing at least 10 people destroying infrastructure. Major international airport Kansai which serves Osaka, Kobe and Kyoto was flooded and shut as the airport lost its link to the mainland when strong winds drove a tanker into a bridge. Emergency teams are working hard on restoring services. Containers were scattered like Lego bricks in Osaka’s port.

Japan is regularly hit by typhoons the last one Talas in 2011 killed 82 and in 2013 a storm near Tokyo killed 40.
