Typhoon Gaemi Causes Deaths in Taiwan, Philippines

Typhoon Gaemi has struck Taiwan and the Philippines, resulting in at least 25 fatalities and hundreds of injuries. In the Philippines, 22 people have died from flooding and landslides, while Taiwan has reported three deaths and significant power outages affecting half a million households. The storm made landfall in Taiwan with winds reaching 205 kph, causing widespread flooding and prompting evacuations. Authorities in both countries are mobilizing to provide aid and manage the ongoing impacts, including the sinking of an oil tanker off the Philippine coast. As Gaemi continues its path towards mainland China, ferry routes and train services have been suspended in Fujian province. The disaster has intensified concerns about public safety and emergency preparedness in the region.
