Typhoon Bavi made landfall in China’s eastern Zhejiang province, bringing powerful winds and torrential rain that forced authorities to issue the country’s highest-level red alert for rainstorms. The storm has caused widespread disruption, with emergency services on high alert as severe weather continues to affect several regions.
Chinese authorities have evacuated nearly two million people from areas considered to be at high risk. Residents were moved to safer locations as officials warned of possible flooding, landslides, and other weather-related dangers caused by the intense rainfall and strong winds.
Major cities, including Beijing, have activated emergency response measures to reduce the impact of the storm. Local governments have strengthened flood control efforts, monitored vulnerable areas, and urged people to stay indoors unless absolutely necessary.
Officials are continuing to closely track Typhoon Bavi as it moves inland. Rescue teams remain on standby, while authorities are advising the public to follow weather updates and safety instructions until the severe conditions improve.
