Typhoon Yagi in Myanmar
After hitting Vietnam, Typhoon Yagi swept inland and poured heavy rain on Tuesday, 10 September 2024. Floodwaters as high as five meters (15 feet) submerged parts of Myanmar's capital, Naypyidaw. Flooding swept away houses and trapped thousands of residents.
Rising waters have affected Myanmar's northern regions, leaving residents without electricity or phone service. Further south, the Thaungyin River burst its banks, resulting in several neighbouring residential areas being flooded. People had no time to take their belongings, as the water level rose rapidly. Residents have since taken shelter at monasteries and schools. In Tachileik town, it was reported that many people were stuck at their offices and could not leave. One death was caused by a landslide triggered by flooding in Hopong Township in eastern Shan State.
The military announced the temporary stop of train transport between Yangon and Mandalay as a railway bridge in Mandalay swept away by floods.
Currently, 17 deaths were been reported by the fire department. At least 5,000 people were impacted by flooding caused by the Typhoon.
