Typhoon Wipha has battered southern China, Hong Kong, Vietnam, and parts of Southeast Asia, causing widespread disruption, flooding, and travel chaos.
The storm forced the cancellation of hundreds of flights, closed airports, and left tens of thousands of travelers stranded, particularly in Hong Kong and northern Vietnam. Authorities issued their highest storm warnings, suspended public transport, and placed coastal provinces on emergency alert due to the risk of flash floods and landslides. Wipha's heavy rains and strong winds toppled trees, injured dozens, and knocked out power in several regions.
As the storm weakens, affected areas are bracing for continued downpours and the threat of further flooding.
