Deadly Storm Heads for Vietnam After Resulting in a Minimum of 114 Fatalities in Philippines

Prior to striking in Vietnam, the typhoon left a trail of devastation in the Philippines - and at least 114 fatalities.

Philippines President Ferdinand Marcos Jr has proclaimed a disaster situation - defined by circumstances including significant loss of life, major damage to property, and halt to economic activities and daily routines for residents of impacted regions.

The weather system, referred to locally as Tino, devastated the densely inhabited island of Cebu, inundating whole settlements and carrying vehicles down roads.

Many thousands of people were forced to evacuate, with many taking refuge in designated safe zones.
