Disaster Response in Okayama Prefecture
JULY 17, 2018 - People whose homes were damaged or destroyed by flooding take shelter at Okada Elementary School, a temporary shelter for flood victims, in Mabicho, Kurashiki, Okayama Prefecture, Japan. More than 200 people died in floods and landslides caused by torrential rains more than a week ago. On Sunday, the government announced the weather event would be designated an extremely severe disaster, freeing up recovery funds for the affected areas.
