Flooding, Mudslides, and Travel Disruptions in Japan After Heavy Rains

Flooding, Mudslides, and Travel Disruptions in Japan After Heavy Rains

Imagine a lot of rain falling in Japan, especially in an area called Kyushu.

The rain was so heavy that it caused floods and mudslides, like rivers of water and dirt rushing down hills.

Sadly, some people are missing because of this.

Many people had to leave their homes because of the danger.

The rain also made it hard for trains to run, which is a problem because it's a holiday week.

The government is helping with rescue efforts and telling everyone to be very careful.
