At least 33 Killed and Thousands Displaced by Heavy Rain and Floods in South Korea

At least 33 people have been killed and thousands more have been forced to evacuate following days of heavy rain in Yeongju, South Korea. The rain caused flash floods and landslides, which destroyed homes and trapped 15 vehicles, including a bus, in a flooded tunnel in the city of Cheongju.

Rescue workers, including divers, have been searching the tunnel since Saturday evening. So far, seven bodies have been pulled from the tunnel.

The South Korean government has deployed hundreds of rescue workers to the area in order to search for survivors and provide assistance to those affected by the floods and landslides.

The government has also set up shelters for those who have been displaced by the disaster. In addition, the government is providing food, water, and medical supplies to those in need.

The South Korean government is continuing to monitor the situation and is working to provide assistance to those affected by the floods and landslides. The government is also urging people to take precautions and to stay away from flooded areas.
