Typhoon Wipha has battered large parts of Southeast Asia, including Vietnam, southern China, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, and the Philippines, causing severe weather, flooding, and major travel disruptions.
The storm made landfall in northern Vietnam and southern China, bringing heavy rain, strong winds, and triggering emergency alerts, flight cancellations, and school closures. Authorities in affected regions have mobilized emergency responses, with hundreds of thousands of soldiers on standby in Vietnam and the highest storm warnings issued in Hong Kong. The typhoon has caused power outages, toppled trees, and led to casualties and displacement in several countries.
As Wipha weakens, cleanup and recovery efforts are underway, but continued rainfall poses ongoing risks of flooding and landslides.
