At least 14 people have died in Taiwan after a dike burst following Typhoon Ragasa, which brought heavy rain and strong winds to southern China on Wednesday morning, September 24, where Hong Kong has been placed on high alert.
At 8:00 a.m. (0000 GMT), Ragasa was located about 120 km south of Hong Kong, according to the local meteorological service. It was generating winds with a maximum speed of 195 km/h at its center, while crossing the South China Sea in a westerly direction.
Before hitting southern China, the storm, accompanied by torrential rains, affected the northern Philippines, but also Taiwan where, on Tuesday, a lake formed several years ago by a landslide burst, flooding a nearby town, according to a video obtained by AFP.
