Typhoon Fung-wong blows away from the Philippines, leaving 2 dead and 1.4 million displaced https://ift.tt/iq0tjE1 Typhoon Fung-wong has moved away from the Philippines, leaving a trail of destruction. The super typhoon, packing sustained winds of up to 185 kilometers per hour, made landfall Sunday night, triggering widespread flooding and landslides. Tragically, at least two lives have been lost. Over 1.4 million people were displaced, with many seeking refuge in emergency shelters or with relatives. While the storm has passed, authorities warn that heavy rains continue to pose a danger in some northern areas. The Philippines, a nation highly susceptible to natural disasters, is still reeling from Typhoon Kalmaegi, which recently claimed over 200 lives. In response to the ongoing crisis, President Marcos Jr. had previously declared a state of emergency. The nation faces a significant recovery effort ahead, compounded by flight cancellations and the stranding of thousands of commuters.
