Death Toll Tops 100 From Damrey

Throughout East Asia the destruction from Damrey is evident, much of which caused by flooding inland and high winds and waves coastal. In Vietnam many schools and hospitals, as well as homes, report damage if left by the typhoon. One official said of the flooding, “The flash flooding came so quickly at night that people were totally unprepared. The only thing they could do was to run away. Some of them were swept away in their sleep.”
Not all of the bodies have been recovered as of yet, due to accessibility. At present 105 people presumed dead, with the majority in Vietnam at 57. China reports 25 deceased, 16 in the Philippines, and seven in Thailand. The death tolls may continue to rise as the cleanup continues.
