At least 236 killed in Myanmar flooding from Typhoon Yagi
Briefly

Typhoon Yagi has had a devastating impact in Myanmar, resulting in at least 236 confirmed deaths and 77 missing, with the toll potentially rising due to significant flooding.
The floods have affected multiple regions, displacing thousands amidst ongoing conflict, highlighting the compounded humanitarian crisis in Myanmar since the February 2021 coup.
Despite severe devastation, the military leadership in Myanmar has historically rejected offers for international help, but they have recently called for assistance in light of Typhoon Yagi.
With only 25% of the humanitarian response funded this year, the need for immediate support for food, water, and shelter in Myanmar is critical amid ongoing challenges.
