More flooding deaths in Vietnam
Officials in central Vietnam say about 50 people have been killed in flooding and landslides triggered by torrential rains in the past four days.

The flood waters in central provinces of the country are now said to be subsiding.

More than 200 people have been killed in flooding throughout Vietnam since July.

Houses, roads and crops have been swept away, and tens of thousands of people have been affected.
