Typhoon Krathon approaches Taiwan, causing two deaths and mass evacuations

A typhoon named Krathon is approaching Taiwan, causing two deaths and over 100 injuries. Thousands have evacuated from low-lying and mountainous areas as the storm brings strong winds and heavy rain. The typhoon is expected to make landfall on Taiwan's west coast, an area that rarely experiences such storms. Authorities have closed schools, canceled flights, and evacuated residents from vulnerable regions, including Kaohsiung, which has seen significant rainfall. As the storm nears, military personnel are assisting with evacuations. Many businesses are closed, and the streets are largely empty. The typhoon has already impacted the northern Philippines, resulting in four deaths and thousands displaced.
