Typhoon Man-yi strikes Philippines, displacing over 750,000 people
Typhoon Man-yi struck the Philippines, causing severe damage and displacing over 750,000 people. The storm hit Catanduanes with winds up to 195 km/h, leading to tidal surges and widespread power outages. This is the sixth major storm to impact the country in less than a month, following two previous storms that have already caused significant destruction. The government has warned of a potentially catastrophic situation in affected provinces. While Manila may avoid a direct hit, it remains under storm alerts. The recent storms have resulted in over 160 fatalities and affected nine million people, prompting concerns about food supply, particularly rice.
