SENDAI, Japan (Reuters) - Japan faced a growing humanitarian crisis on Sunday after its devastating earthquake and tsunami left millions of people without water, electricity, homes or heat.
As officials predicted the death toll could top 10,000, the country mobilized a rescue effort to deliver food, water and fuel, and pull stranded survivors from buildings and damaged homes. More than 350,000 people had been evacuated.
