More Japanese rivers overflow bringing further floods, 23 missing

Floods that swept houses off foundations and crushed them under landslides spread across Japan on Friday as more rivers burst their banks, leaving at least 23 people missing and forcing more than 100,000 to flee.
A severe rain warning remained in effect for parts of northern Japan but floodwaters were slowly retreating in the worst-hit city of Joso after washing houses away, sometimes with their owners still inside, in scenes reminiscent of a tsunami.
Three people were killed, including a 63-year-old woman crushed when her house was hit by a landslide and another when her car was swept away.
