		</div><p>A tornado that damaged more than 1,000 buildings in Kansas in the US generated winds of up to 165mph and carved a path of destruction nearly 13 miles long.</p>
<p>The National Weather Service said the tornado that caused extensive damage on Friday mostly in the Wichita suburb of Andover and injured several people, rated an EF-3 on the Enhanced Fujita scale it uses to assess tornadoes.</p>
<p>Andover fire chief Chad Russell said that at least 300 to 400 buildings were destroyed by the storm as part of a total of 1,074 buildings that were damaged.</p>
<p>The weather service said the tornado was on the ground for 21 minutes on Friday evening.</p>
<p>Four people, including two firefighters who were responding to a call in Andover, were hurt during the storm but their injuries were minor.</p>
<p>Mr Russell said it would take years for Andover to recover from the storm.</p>
<p>“The city of Andover will be affected by this for years,” he said.</p>
<p>“We still have scars from 1991 (EF-5 tornado). I’m so thankful this tornado was not as bad as that, but we will literally be doing this for years.”</p>
<p>By Sunday, utility crews had restored power to nearly all of the more than 15,000 customers who lost power during the storm.</p>
<p>Evergy said less than 1,000 people remained without power in the Wichita area on Sunday morning.</p>
