HA TINH: Shaken residents in central Vietnam are piecing their homes and businesses back together after a powerful typhoon hammered large swathes of coast and killed at least four people.

Typhoon Doksuri tore through Vietnam on Friday afternoon, reducing structures to piles of debris and knocking out electricity and telecommunications in several provinces, in one of the worst storms to hit the country in years.
