Thousands evacuated as super typhoon Ragasa makes landfall in Philippines | BBC News


Hundreds of thousands of people have been evacuated from the city of Shenzhen in China, as super typhoon Ragasa continues on its path across south east Asia.

Packing 230km/h (143mph) wind gusts, Ragasa made landfall in the Philippines’ northern Cagayan province on Monday, and brings with it a "high risk of life-threatening storm surge”, the Philippine weather bureau said. Schools and government offices in large parts of the country, including in the capital Manila, have been shut.

Authorities in China’s Guangdong province have advised residents to prepare for a "catastrophic" and "large-scale disaster"

In Hong Kong, airline Cathay Pacific said it would cancel 500 flights departing the city from 18:00 local time tomorrow, while Hong Kong Airlines said it would stop all departures from the city.
