Philippines Braces for Typhoon Usagi Amidst Ongoing Storm Crisis

As the fifth major storm in three weeks approaches, the Philippines seeks $32.9 million in aid to address escalating humanitarian needs.

Evacuations have been ordered in the Cagayan province as Typhoon Usagi nears, with up to 40,000 residents in hazard-prone areas.
The UN has called for substantial international aid to support over 210,000 people affected by recent storms, emphasizing critical lifesaving efforts.
Typhoon Usagi is expected to bring severe winds, heavy rain, and rough seas, further straining the already depleted resources of local governments.
More than 28,000 people remain in evacuation centers as recovery efforts continue to restore power and clear debris.
A sixth storm, Tropical Storm Man-yi, is anticipated to hit the Philippines soon, compounding the challenges faced by the storm-weary nation.
