Uzbek Citizens Unaffected by Thailand Typhoon
Typhoon Yagi Causes Worst Flooding in Thailand and Myanmar in 80 Years
Typhoon Yagi made its presence felt in Thailand and Myanmar, bringing with it the worst flooding seen in the northern states of both countries in 80 years. The Consulate General of Uzbekistan in Bangkok reported that floodwaters rose to a height of 1 meter with a fast current, wreaking havoc in its wake.
The heavy rain and ensuing flooding in northern Thailand led to two landslides, resulting in the loss of six lives and damage to almost 9,000 homes. Authorities in Thailand have cautioned residents in flood-affected areas, especially those near the Sai River on the Thai-Myanmar border, to be prepared for potential evacuations.
Fortunately, there were no casualties among Uzbek citizens and their families residing or working in the regions of Thailand impacted by the natural disasters. The situation remains critical as both countries grapple with the aftermath of Typhoon Yagi’s devastating effects. The authorities are working tirelessly to provide assistance and aid to those affected by the floods and landslides in the region.
