November 9, 2025 1

At least two people found dead as super-typhoon heads for Philippines, days after Typhoon Kalmaegi killed at least 224

More than 1 million people have been evacuated and at least two people killed as flood waters rose in the Philippines before Typhoon Fung-wong’s expected landfall on the east coast.

The super-typhoon is expected to bring wind and heavy rain to large parts of the archipelago. It comes days after Typhoon Kalmaegi hit the country, killing at least 224 people and leaving another 135 missing. Searches for those still missing had to be suspended on Sunday due to safety concerns for rescue workers.
