Over the weekend, Vietnam faced the wrath of Typhoon Yagi, resulting in a tragic toll of at least 14 fatalities and 176 injuries, as reported by state media. The typhoon, described as one of the most powerful to hit the region in the last decade, caused widespread destruction in the country's northern provinces.
With wind speeds reaching up to 149 kilometers per hour, Typhoon Yagi made landfall in the coastal provinces of Quang Ninh and Haiphong, leaving a trail of devastation in its wake. The aftermath of the storm saw more than 3 million people without electricity, significant damage to agricultural land, and the closure of four airports due to the cancellation of hundreds of flights.
