Thousands stranded at Japanese airport after heavy rains
Record rainfall exceeding 360 mm within 24 hours in the Tokyo and Chiba regions of Japan caused flooding of roads and railways, disrupted transportation at Narita Airport, and stranded around 7,000 travelers. Additionally, more than 22,000 homes experienced power outages. The floods resulted in at least four deaths, including individuals trapped in flooded cars, and others remain missing. The military has been deployed to assist in relief efforts. This rainfall is among the most intense periods during the holiday season, leading to partial flight cancellations, delays for some flights, the closure of main roads, and increased traffic congestion.
