Afp, Shanghai
At least 14 people were killed in China as Typhoon Khanun ground its way inland, causing widespread damage and forcing the evacuation of more than a million people in coastal areas.

Khanun, the 15th typhoon to hit China this year, slammed into the eastern province of Zhejiang Sunday, with a preliminary death toll of 14 in that area alone, the Ministry of Civil Affairs said on its website.
