Manila, Philippines | AFP

Super Typhoon Fung-wong slammed into the Philippines’ eastern seaboard on Sunday, the national weather service said, after killing at least two people and forcing more than a million to evacuate their homes.

The storm, with a radius spanning nearly the whole of the Philippines, made landfall in Aurora province on the main island of Luzon at 9:10 pm (1310 GMT), the state forecaster reported, only days after another typhoon ravaged the country.
