Gaemi, the first typhoon of the season, has caused high winds and heavy rain across Southeast Asia. Flooding brought by the typhoon caused large swathes of the Philippines’ capital on July 24 to go underwater, drowning streets, homes, schools and hospitals in up to chest-deep floodwaters and forcing tens of thousands to evacuate to temporary shelters. It is now making landfall in the northeastern part of China’s Taiwan region early on Thursday. Join CGTN live on the real-time impact of Typhoon Gaemi.
