Typhoon Bavi made landfall in Zhejiang province, China, prompting the evacuation of more than 1.7 million people. The storm brought sustained winds of 144 kilometers per hour, leading Chinese authorities to raise an orange typhoon alert, the second-highest in the four-tier warning system.
Widespread Disruptions
Prior to Bavi's arrival, China issued heightened warnings for eastern regions. Numerous flights were canceled, and train services were reduced significantly. Schools suspended classes, and ferry services were halted to ensure public safety.
Impact on Neighboring Regions
The typhoon also brought strong winds and heavy rainfall to southern Japan and Taiwan. According to reports, the storm system affected transportation and daily life across these areas, though no casualties have been confirmed as of yet.
Authorities continue to monitor the situation as Bavi moves inland, with emergency response teams deployed to assist affected communities.
