At least nine people have died and four remain missing after Typhoon Dujuan brought record-breaking rainfall to eastern Japan, triggering landslides and flooding across the Kanto region and the Izu Islands.
Chiba Prefecture reported the highest toll, with six confirmed deaths, while Kanagawa Prefecture reported three, including a woman in her 60s killed when a landslide buried her Yokosuka home in mud. Police and fire crews continue searching for the missing.
The typhoon brought record rainfall to Oshima in the Izu Islands over 800mm in 48 hours, the highest since records began prompting Japan's highest-level landslide warning before the storm weakened and moved into the Pacific by Tuesday.
More than 270 flights were cancelled at Tokyo's Haneda Airport, and tens of thousands of households lost power at points during the disaster.
Authorities continue warning of further landslide risk from saturated ground.
