At least two individuals were killed and some towns were cut off by Typhoon Fung-wong, which devastated the northern Philippines overnight. After a restless night, villagers emerged on Monday, November 10, 2025, to begin surveying the damage.
Before Fung-wong made landfall as a super typhoon in the eastern town of Dinalungan in Aurora province on Sunday night, November 9, more than a million people were evacuated. Throughout the night, it battered areas of Luzon, the nation's major island, with strong winds, torrential rain, and storm seas.
In the northern city of Santiago in the province of Isabela, homes were destroyed by the typhoon known locally as "Uwan." The typhoon also destroyed power posts and tree branches.

Romeo Mariano, who was taking refuge with his grandmother in their house, stated, "The winds hitting our metal sheets and the tree branches falling last night prevented us from sleeping."
"When we got out to check our home, we saw the damage, and almost all of the tree branches nearby fell," he continued.
An early report from the Civil Defence agency stated that the storm had killed at least two persons and injured two more.
At least three towns were unreachable because of landslides and damaged roads, according to Aurora Vice-Governor Patrick Alexis Angara.
Mr. Angara informed radio DZMM that "assessment and clearing operations are underway."

According to the state weather bureau, the typhoon is now over the South China Sea and is expected to move northeast towards Taiwan. It cautioned that storm waves in coastal regions, torrential rainfall, and strong winds still plagued most of the nation.
Since Sunday, more than 400 flights have been cancelled, according to the civil aviation regulator. Following Typhoon Kalmaegi, which killed 224 people in the Philippines and five more in Vietnam last week, Fung-wong was the 21st typhoon to strike the country this year.
