Typhoon Bavi makes landfall in eastern China as more than 1 million are evacuated | National News
TAIPEI, Taiwan (AP) — Typhoon Bavi made landfall in China’s eastern province of Zhejiang late on Saturday night and was expected to gradually weaken, state media reported.
Bavi previously brought strong winds and rain to Japan’s southern islands and Taiwan. It was the second typhoon in a week to impact China in just over a week’s time. The first, Maysak, made landfall in southern China last weekend.
