"COX'S BAZAR, Bangladesh -- A cyclone slammed into Bangladesh's southeast
coast Wednesday, swamping low-lying areas and forcing tens of thousands of
people to flee. Five fishermen were missing.

High winds and heavy rains forced up to 50,000 people to evacuate low-lying
homes and seek shelter in multistory buildings, said Akhtar-uz Zaman, an
official at a storm monitoring center in Cox's Bazar.

The fishermen disappeared after their two boats capsized off Cox's Bazar.
Fishing trawlers were advised to return to shore. he storm knocked over
trees and electricity poles before it weakened and crossed into neighboring
Myanmar, the officials said. "
