The death toll in Vietnam from typhoon Yagi and the landslides and flash floods it triggered rose to 226 on Thursday, the government's disaster agency said, as flood pressure eased in the capital Hanoi, Paralel.Az reports citing Reuters.

The Southeast Asian country is reeling from the impact of Typhoon Yagi, the strongest storm to hit Asia this year, which made landfall in Vietnam's northeastern coast on Saturday.

More than 100 people remain missing, while some 800 people have been injured, the agency said in a report.
