Super Typhoon Kong-Rey, described as one of the largest storms to hit Taiwan in decades, has made landfall, battering the island with powerful winds and torrential rain. The storm has resulted in flooded streets, disrupted air and rail traffic, and led to the cancellation of numerous flights. Taiwan has closed schools, offices, and the stock exchange in anticipation of severe impacts. Tragically, reports confirm at least one fatality as the storm moves across the region. The typhoon has prompted emergency measures and live tracking as residents brace for further chaos.
