Tens of thousands flee as Typhoon Man-yi nears Philippines
Man-yi will be the sixth major storm to pound the Philippines in the past month, killing at least 163 people, leaving thousands homeless and wiping out crops and livestock. With wind gusts of up to 215kmh, Man-yi was on track to slam into the sparsely populated island province of Catanduanes later on Nov 16 or early Nov 17.
