Typhoon Wipha has battered multiple countries in East and Southeast Asia, including Vietnam, China, Hong Kong, Macau, the Philippines, and Taiwan, causing widespread disruption.
The storm brought torrential rains, strong winds, and flooding, leading to the cancellation of hundreds of flights, closure of airports, and suspension of public transport. Authorities in Vietnam and China placed emergency services and soldiers on high alert, with evacuations and warnings issued for potential landslides and flash floods. Hong Kong experienced its highest typhoon warning, but avoided catastrophic damage due to favorable wind and tidal conditions.
As Wipha weakened after landfall, the region continued to face travel chaos, power outages, and ongoing weather threats.
