Typhoon forces South Korea to evacuate scout jamboree

Organisers of the World Scout Jamboree asked host South Korea Monday to "urgently" evacuate tens of thousands of children from their campsite ahead of a typhoon, just days after a heatwave.

The government had said it would send 1,000 buses to move the mostly teenage scouts from the site.
