A powerful tornado ripped through a small Iowa town on May 21, killing several people and leaving at least a dozen injured, authorities said.

Kim Reynolds said the state would provide its full resources to help the impacted areas recover, and reassured residents that support was in place, with crews working to provide shelter, food, and water, and to restore power to thousands of residents.
