Torrential rainfall battered South Korea's southern regions Wednesday, leaving two people dead, authorities said. "It was a level of severity seen once in about 200 years," (Yonhap) News Agency quoted a weather agency official as saying. Torrential rain also led to the cancellation of 21 flights at Gimhae International Airport in the southeastern port city of Busan and delays for 16 others. All train services on the Janghang Line in South Chungcheong Province and the Gyeongbuk Line in North Gyeongsang Province have been suspended. In July 2023, South Korea was hit by floods due to heavy rains in several areas, resulting in the death of 44 people. Source: Qatar News Agency
