 Taiwan evacuates thousands as tropical storm Fung-wong approaches, following fatalities in the Philippines 

TAIPEI, TAIWAN - Taiwan evacuated over 3,000 residents and closed schools and offices on Tuesday as tropical storm Fung-wong approached, following its deadly impact in the Philippines, where at least 18 people were killed and more than 1.4 million were displaced. The storm, once classified as a typhoon, is weakening as it nears Taiwan and is forecast to make landfall Wednesday afternoon or evening near the southwestern port city of Kaohsiung.

On Tuesday morning, Fung-wong brought maximum sustained winds of 108 kph (67 mph) with gusts up to 137 kph (85 mph). Authorities expect it to cross the island and exit through the northeast by Wednesday evening or early Thursday. Evacuations affected more than 3,300 people from four counties and cities near Guangfu township, an area previously hit by September flooding that killed 18 after a barrier lake overflowed. Schools and offices were closed in Hualien and Yilan counties, and a land warning was issued for southern and southwestern areas, including Kaohsiung, Pingtung, Tainan, and Taitung. Meanwhile, China activated emergency typhoon responses in Fujian, Guangdong, Zhejiang, and Hainan provinces.

Fung-wong hit the northeastern Philippines on Sunday as a super typhoon with maximum sustained winds of 185 kph (115 mph) and gusts reaching 230 kph (143 mph). The storm’s 1,800-kilometer (1,100-mile) reach caused flash floods and landslides in northern provinces, killing at least 18 people. More than 803,000 remained in evacuation centers across northern Luzon on Tuesday. Among the fatalities were three children buried in two separate landslides in Nueva Vizcaya province and four others injured, while Kalinga province saw two deaths and two missing. Officials noted that the casualties were spread across multiple locations rather than concentrated in one area. Both the Philippines and Taiwan face frequent typhoons and storms each year.
