HANOI, Vietnam (AP) — The death toll in Vietnam from Typhoon Yagi and subsequent heavy rain that triggered floods and landslides climbed to 87 on Tuesday, with 70 people missing and hundreds injured, state media said.

Typhoon Yagi was the strongest typhoon to hit Vietnam in decades when it made landfall Saturday with winds of up to 149 kph (92 mph). It killed nine people and then weakened Sunday, but continuing downpours triggered floods and landslides.

Vietnamese state broadcaster VTV reported that 87 people have died and 70 remain missing. Most of the deaths were caused by flooding and landslides, it said.
