Three people have died and dozens have been injured as a typhoon wreaks havoc on Japan’s southern island of Kyushu.

Typhoon Shanshan has left more than 250,000 homes without power, with the southern Miyazaki prefecture among the worst hit, receiving a month’s worth of rain in 24 hours.

Authorities are warning of extensive damage and flooding, with a couple in their 70s and their son in his 30s killed in the city of Gamori after a landslide crushed a house.

A rare typhoon warning has been issued, urging tens of thousands to evacuate, as it makes its way slowly north.
