Typhoon Sanba batters 2 Koreas after drenching Japan; 2 killed in S. Korea

Typhoon Sanba, which battered southern South Korea around midday Monday, pushed northward and moved into eastern waters, where it weakened and lost energy on Tuesday morning. North Korean didn’t get a direct hit but was affected by the storm’s outer bands, South Korean weather officials said.
More than 3,700 homes and shops in South Korea remained without power Tuesday but officials were expected to restore power later in the day, the state-run National Emergency Management Agency said in a statement.
A woman died in a landslide in southeastern South Korea, and a man died in a separate landslide, agency officials said. Two people were injured and about 560 people were left homeless, they said.
