Super Typhoon Ragasa, which left a trail of destruction in the Philippines, is now moving toward Hong Kong, prompting China to issue its highest-level weather alerts.
According to international media reports, a “double red alert” has been declared in China, with authorities suspending schools, offices, public transport, business activities, and flights in at least 10 cities across Guangdong province. Preparations are underway to relocate more than 40,000 residents to safer areas.
In Hong Kong, panic buying has emptied supermarket shelves as residents brace for the approaching storm.
On Tuesday, the typhoon battered the Philippines with torrential rains and powerful winds, flooding roads, uprooting trees, blowing off rooftops, and triggering landslides that forced thousands of people into evacuation shelters.
