Super Typhoon Yagi kills at least 197 in Vietnam, forces evacuations in Hanoi

Thousands of people living along the Red River in Vietnam's capital Hanoi were evacuated on Wednesday, as floods and landslides caused by Asia's most powerful storm this year killed at least 197 people in the country's north. Typhoon Yagi also wreaked havoc on many factories and flooded warehouses in coastal export-oriented industrial hubs east of Hanoi, forcing closures and threatening global supply chains.
