Nov 09, 2025 06:56 pm CST

Super Typhoon Fung-Wong has forced the evacuation of more than 1 million people in the Philippines, with at least one confirmed death as the massive storm approaches landfall on Sunday night. This devastating weather system arrives just days after Typhoon Kalmaegi killed over 220 people, creating a compounded disaster scenario across the archipelago nation. With heavy rainfall, flooding, and powerful winds already affecting multiple provinces, authorities have closed schools and government offices while scientists point to climate change as intensifying these increasingly dangerous storms.
