The Philippines is still dealing with the devastation wrought by Typhoon Kalmaegi as Super Typhoon Fung-wong approaches.

Delegates at COP30 are grappling with how best to help the vulnerable withstand worsening weather and other climate extremes.

Typhoon Fung-wong slings around a suspension bridge in the eastern Philippines. The typhoon made landfall as a Category 3 equivalent hurricane.

A weakened Typhoon Fung-wong is now passing over the South China Sea, after leaving two people dead in the Philippines.

Typhoon Kalmaegi killed at least 188 people across the Philippines and caused untold damage to infrastructure and farmland across the archipelago. The storm then destroyed homes and uprooted trees after landing in central Vietnam late on Thursday.

Philippines President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. approved a state of emergency declaration on Thursday as the storm response continued.
