United Nations, Dhu-AlHijjah 10, 1437, September 12, 2016, SPA -- Flooding from heavy rain in North Korea has killed 133 people in the northeast while 395 are missing, with many homes and infrastructure destroyed, a U.N. agency said Monday. News of the natural disaster came as North Korea grew more isolated from its neighbors and the world after its fifth nuclear test last Friday. The U.N. Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) said in a report that more than 35,500 homes were damaged, two-thirds of them completely destroyed, and 107,000 people had been displaced by the flooding. It noted that the death toll and the number of missing people were based on North Korean government data. North Korean state media reported heavy rain in late August and early September caused extensive damage near the Tumen River. The KCNA news agency said Sunday that the worst “climatic phenomenon” in more than 70 years hit the northern part of North Korea, causing “huge losses.” Widespread deforestation for fuel and farming makes the impoverished country prone to natural disasters, particularly floods. --SPA 20:25 LOCAL TIME 17:25 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
