Japan orders evacuations as Typhoon Dolphin approaches, cancels 500 flights
On Friday, an evacuation directive was issued for hundreds of thousands of individuals in southwestern Japan, due to the approaching Typhoon Dolphin. More than 500 flights were cancelled across the country's southern islands due to the slow-moving storm. The typhoon's arrival brings substantial rainfall to an area that continues to recuperate from last week's fatal earthquake.
