The death toll from Typhoon Uwan has risen to 25, with more than 2.4 million people displaced across 15 regions.
Most fatalities were caused by landslides and flood-related incidents in mountainous and coastal provinces. Authorities noted that the declaration of a state of calamity and preemptive evacuations likely helped prevent a higher death count.
Relief operations continue, focusing on debris clearance, providing shelter for affected families, and restoring essential services in storm-hit areas.
