At least 18 people have died in floods and landslides caused by days of torrential rain in South Korea, the country’s disaster management office has said.
There are fears the death toll could rise as emergency rescue efforts continue, with 11 people reported missing.
Footage showed people wading through thick mud in the landslide-hit resort town of Gapyeong on Sunday as they made their way across a damaged bridge to evacuation shelters.
Much of the destruction has been in the country’s south, with six people killed and seven missing in Sancheong.
