Floods and landslides left at least eight dead, two missing and 15 injured as Typhoon Kajiki lashed northern Thailand.

The Chiang Mai Disaster Prevention and Mitigation Office said today that the death toll has climbed to eight after a landslide last week buried a remote mountain village in Chiang Mai province.

Disaster office head Dusit Pongsapipat said Kajiki's onslaught affected more than 2,800 residents across 35 villages in the area.

Two more people were missing, but 10ft piles of earth have hampered the search, he said.

Affected residents were evacuated to a temporary shelter while infrastructure repairs were underway, authorities said.

The Royal Irrigation Department said it will inspect the stability of high-risk zones to determine the possibility of further landslides.

Vietnam has also recently been battered by Typhoon Kajiki, which made landfall on August 25, leaving at least seven people dead, one missing, and 34 others injured. Officials said more than 7,000 homes were damaged during the storm.

The Thai Meteorological Department on Sunday said that another storm, Tropical Storm Nongfah, was moving into Thailand as a strong low-pressure system.

Combined with an intensifying southwest monsoon, the weather system is expected to bring heavy to very heavy rainfall across 43 provinces over the next one to two days.

Authorities warned residents to constantly monitor weather updates.
