STORYLINE:
Floods and landslides in Myanmar triggered by last week’s Typhoon Yagi and seasonal monsoon rains killed at least 226 people, with 77 people missing, state-run media reported Tuesday.
The new figures pushed the total number of dead in Southeast Asia from the storm past 500.
The accounting of casualties has been slow, in part due to communication difficulties with the affected areas.
Footage filmed in Myanmar’s capital Naypyitaw on Tuesday showed damage to homes and infrastructure with people clinging to the wreckage of a bridge as they tried to cross a swollen river.
Typhoon Yagi earlier hit Vietnam, northern Thailand and Laos, killing almost 300 people in Vietnam, 42 in Thailand and four in Laos, according to the ASEAN Coordinating Center for Humanitarian Assistance. It said 21 people were killed in the Philippines, with another 26 missing.
