Typhoon "Champi" is moving toward Japan:
Authorities in Wakayama Prefecture, on the island of Honshu, are primarily reaching out to the elderly. This comes as intense downpours threaten to trigger flooding and landslides.
The prefecture’s administrative center, the city of Wakayama, is already being submerged; streets are flooded, and vehicles are navigating through the water.
All of this is the result of the powerful typhoon "Champi." It is currently moving toward the coast of Japan from the direction of the Chinese coast at a speed of 20 km/h.
