Bangladeshis reinforce dam as 'super cyclone' nears

Description

Men, women, and children work together to reinforce a makeshift dam in the southwestern Bangladesh city of Khulna as cyclone Amphan barrels toward the coast. Forecasters warned of a potentially deadly storm surge as authorities scrambled to evacuate low lying areas in Amphan's projected trail of destruction. It is only the second "super cyclone" to form over the Bay of Bengal since records began. IMAGES
