Typhoon Doksuri made landfall in eastern China on Friday, leaving a trail of destruction in its wake. Large parts of Fujian province were battered by torrential rains, powerful winds and widespread flooding. Footage released by state TV showed entire streets under water, as rescue workers attempted to pull people to safety. An official with Fujian province’s disaster agency said at least 800,000 people were affected by the floods and an additional 416,000 people in Fujian had already been evacuated. Doksuri is the most powerful typhoon to hit Fujian province since 2016.
