  "account": "On Thursday, the death toll from Typhoon Dujuan in eastern Japan increased to 11, according to local authorities. Akemi Numata, a 70-year-old resident of Yokosuka in Kanagawa Prefecture, was found deceased after a landslide caused by the storm. The fatalities are now at four in Kanagawa and seven in neighboring Chiba Prefecture, with three people still unaccounted for. The typhoon coincided with Japan's five-day Silver Week holiday, causing significant disruptions to rail services. East Japan Railway Co. had to suspend services on various lines and reduce train numbers. Hiroyuki Someya, a 61-year-old evacuee, returned to his flooded home and described the damage as worse than anticipated. JR East's Uchibo Line between Anegasaki and Kisarazu stations in Chiba is expected to be out of service for approximately three months. As of Thursday afternoon, 989 buildings had been damaged in Chiba and Kanagawa, including 27 completely destroyed and 517 with water damage above the floor level. Both prefectures have reported several injuries from the typhoon.",
