Typhoon Kalmaegi: Deadly storm tears through Vietnam after killing nearly 200 in Philippines

Typhoon Kalmaegi made landfall in central Vietnam late on Thursday, uprooting trees, damaging homes, and triggering power outages, before weakening as it moved inland. Authorities warned of continuing heavy rainfall of up to 200 millimetres in central provinces from Thanh Hoa to Quang Tri. Coastal areas in Vietnam were assessing the damage from Typhoon Kalmaegi's destructive winds and heavy rain on Friday, with one death reported by state media, following its deadly passage through the Philippines, where it killed at least 188 people. As the storm's death toll climbed in the Philippines, officials there said another 135 people remained missing and 96 had been injured.
