Typhoon Yagi claimed the lives of 21 people in Vietnam while killing four people on the southern Chinese island of Hainan and 20 in the Philippines.

Typhoons also tend to weaken once they hit land and this was the case for Yagi. However, as per Reuters, the storm has caused the death of at least 82 people and 64 people are currently missing at the time of reporting, with 752 people having been injured.

In Vietnam, nine people died when the typhoon made landfall Saturday, and at least 55 others have died during the floods and landslides that followed.
