Typhoon Champi in Taiwan

Typhoon Champi affected Taiwan and Japan’s southern islands, killing one person and injuring at least 94 people. A video crane was swept into the sea by high waves in Taiwan.

Although the storm was weakening, it was still expected that it could make a direct landfall in Taiwan. Much of public life in Taiwan was shut down as a precaution, and many flights were cancelled.
