Dramatic photos show the destruction in Japan caused by heavy rains and flooding brought by Typhoon Hagibis, which has killed as many as 33 people.
The typhoon made landfall near Izu Peninsula in Shizuoka prefecture in central Japan -- south of Tokyo -- just before 7 p.m. local time Saturday, according to local officials.
Several people were stranded in their homes, and rescue operations continued into Sunday, AP reported. The number of fatalities from the storm was conflicting. Japan's Fire and Disaster Management Agency said 14 people had died, 11 were missing and 187 were injured, but the agency tends to be conservative in its counts, according to AP.
