Typhoon Wipha has battered multiple countries across Asia, including Vietnam, China, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, and the Philippines, causing widespread travel chaos, flooding, and power outages.
The storm forced the cancellation of hundreds of flights, shut down airports, and suspended public transport, stranding tens of thousands of travelers. Authorities in Vietnam and China placed coastal provinces on emergency alert, warning of flash floods and landslides as torrential rains inundated cities. Hong Kong issued its highest storm warning, with hurricane-force winds toppling trees and injuring dozens, while southern China and Vietnam braced for further heavy rainfall and disruption.
As Wipha weakens, the region faces ongoing risks of flooding and landslides, with recovery efforts underway and travel slowly resuming.
