As a result of the impact of Typhoon 'Toraji' in northern Luzon in the Philippines, a first level disaster has been declared. In connection with this, local residents were warned about the necessity to take necessary precautionary measures, as strong rains and continuous winds were recorded, reaching speeds of up to 130 kilometers per hour.
About 700 thousand people have been forced to survive in temporary shelters or with relatives after Typhoons Tramie, Kwing-Ri, and Vinsching destroyed their homes. The Philippine government has also urged residents of 2,500 villages to evacuate due to the approaching storm from the north of the country, according to official statistics. This comes shortly after three powerful typhoons made landfall in the Philippines in less than a month.
