Typhoon Bualoi ripped roofs from buildings and uprooted electrical poles along Vietnam’s coast, killing at least 11 people. <\/p>\n
HANOI – Typhoon Bualoi ripped roofs from buildings and uprooted electrical poles along Vietnam’s coast, killing at least 11 people, local and national officials said on Monday.<\/p>\n
The storm — the 10th to hit Vietnam this year — made landfall late on Sunday, generating winds of 130 kilometres (80 miles) per hour.<\/p>\n
Thousands of houses and businesses have been damaged or destroyed, authorities in three provinces told AFP.<\/p>\n
Images published by AFP showed corrugated metal roofs blown off buildings and household debris strewn across saturated streets in coastal Nghe An province.<\/p>\n
“The wind blew my roof to the sky and then it fell down, breaking everything. I had to cover my head and rushed to my neighbour’s house to be safe,” Trinh Thi Le, 71, in central Quang Tri province, was quoted as saying by state-run Tuoi Tre newspaper.<\/p>\n
At least nine people were killed when a typhoon-related whirlwind swept through northern Ninh Binh province early on Monday, according to the local disaster agency.<\/p>\n
One person was killed in the province of Hue and another in Thanh Hoa, while about 20 were missing, local and national disaster authorities reported.<\/p>\n
Among those unaccounted for were nine people whose fishing boats were lost at sea Sunday night after their vessels were unmoored during strong winds and currents, police said.<\/p>\n
More than 53,000 people were evacuated to schools and medical centres converted into temporary shelters ahead of Bualoi hitting Vietnam, the environment ministry said.<\/p>\n
Four domestic airports and part of the national highway were closed on Monday. More than 180 flights have been cancelled or delayed, airport authorities said.<\/p>\n
Parts of Nghe An and the steel-producing central province of Ha Tinh were without power, and schools were closed in affected regions.<\/p>\n
Since making landfall in Vietnam, Bualoi has weakened as it moves towards neighbouring Laos.<\/p>\n
The storm battered small islands in the centre of the Philippines last week, killing at least 11 people and forcing 400,000 to evacuate.<\/p>\n
In Vietnam, 175 people were killed or went missing due to natural disasters from January to August this year, the General Statistics Office (GSO) said.<\/p>\n
Total damages were worth about $371 million, almost triple the amount of the same period in 2024, the GSO said.<\/p>\n
Scientists warn that storms are becoming more powerful as the world warms due to the effects of human-driven climate change.<\/p>\n
Typhoon Yagi killed hundreds of people in Vietnam in September last year and caused economic losses worth $3.3 billion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"PUBLISHED : 29 Sep 2025 at 14:45 \u00a0 Small \u00a0 Medium \u00a0 Large Typhoon Bualoi ripped roofs from…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":189815,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[47],"tags":[110905,192,110906,79,4388,110904,3999],"class_list":{"0":"post-189814","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-environment","8":"tag-bualoi","9":"tag-environment","10":"tag-landfall","11":"tag-science","12":"tag-storm","13":"tag-typhoon","14":"tag-vietnam"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/189814","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=189814"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/189814\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/189815"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=189814"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=189814"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=189814"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
