Typhoon Yagi, classified as one of the most powerful storms in recent years, made landfall in northern Vietnam on Saturday, resulting in at least four fatalities and 78 injuries. The storm, which previously wreaked havoc in China's Hainan province, where it claimed three lives and injured 95, generated wind speeds of up to 149 km/h (92 mph) upon hitting Vietnam's coastal provinces of Quang Ninh and Haiphong. Extensive damage occurred, with thousands of trees uprooted, roofs torn off buildings, and widespread power outages reported in northern regions. Evacuations were carried out in vulnerable areas, and several airports, including those in Hanoi, were temporarily shut down. The typhoon's destructive path also impacted the Philippines, leading to at least 16 deaths before reaching China. Residents described the terrifying experience, with many recalling the intense sounds of wind and rain as the storm passed through their communities.
