Typhoon Kills at Least 35, Leaves Dozens Missing in Vietnam

VOA News

   A powerful typhoon in Vietnam has killed at least 35 people and left
   more than 50 missing, state media reported. At least 1.7 million people
   were left without power, as the typhoon set off landslides.

   Officials said Typhoon Molave was the most powerful storm to strike the
   Southeast Asian country in 20 years. As it made landfall Wednesday, it
   ravaged a central area of the country that was already reeling from
   weeks of torrential rains that killed at least 160 people.
