Typhoon Yagi, the strongest storm to hit Vietnam in decades, has resulted in at least 59 deaths and widespread destruction across northern regions. The typhoon made landfall on Saturday with winds reaching 92 mph, leading to flash floods and landslides that claimed additional lives, including six in Sa Pa town. A steel bridge over the Red River collapsed on Monday, causing ten vehicles to plunge into the water, with 13 people reported missing. Rescue operations are ongoing, but efforts are hampered by treacherous conditions, including blocked roads due to landslides.

Authorities continue to warn of potential further flooding as the situation develops.
