Typhoon Yagi: dozens dead after powerful storm hits Vietnam – video
At least 24 people have been killed and hundreds of others injured after the most powerful storm so far this year in Asia made landfall in north-east Vietnam. Typhoon Yagi triggered deadly landslides and floods, and on Monday the Vietnamese authorities warned of further possible flooding.
Before reaching Vietnam at the weekend, Yagi tore through southern China and the Philippines, killing at least two dozen people and injuring many more. Typhoons in the region are now forming closer to the coast, intensifying more rapidly and staying over land for longer because of the climate crisis, according to a study published in July
