Typhoon Kalmaegi left a trail of death and devastation as it tore through the central Philippines this week, reducing entire neighborhoods to rubble and displacing tens of thousands of people.
The Philippines has been hit by one of the strongest storms this year. A state of calamity has been declared so that the government can more easily help the people who have been affected by the extreme weather.
Typhoon Kalmaegi, which battered the Philippines, was detected to be approximately 405km northwest of Kudat, Sabah, according to the Malaysian Meteorological Department (MetMalaysia).
