Typhoon Yagi Leaves at Least 110 Dead in Myanmar
Briefly

Rescuers in Myanmar reported that floods and landslides from Typhoon Yagi have killed at least 110 people, exacerbating the ongoing turmoil caused by civil conflict.
Residents in Myanmar struggled to prepare for the storm's arrival due to insufficient advance warnings about severe weather, despite the ongoing civil war affecting their resources.
In the aftermath, battles between military and rebel forces continued to impede rescue efforts while the junta prioritized military operations over humanitarian relief, leaving many stranded.
As communication lines remained down in multiple affected areas, rescuers discovered dozens of bodies and reported that around 80 individuals were still unaccounted for.
