Heavy rains in Bangladesh as Cyclone Mocha hits

Heavy rains and winds intensify in Bangladesh's southern-most border town, Teknaf, after Cyclone Mocha hit the South Asian nation and neighboring Myanmar, packing winds of up to 195 kilometers per hour.

Forecasters expect the cyclone to bring a deluge of rain, which can trigger landslips. Operations were suspended at Bangladesh's largest seaport, Chittagong, with boat transport and fishing also halted. Scientists have warned that storms are becoming more powerful as the world gets warmer because of climate change.
