At least five people were injured as Typhoon Trami slammed Japan’s Okinawa Island on on Saturday, September 29, bringing high winds and torrential rains.
The powerful typhoon was expected to swing northeast towards Kagoshima Prefecture’s Amami Islands and Japan’s home islands early Sunday, September 30.
NHK World reported the storm had knocked out power to 160,000 homes in Okinawa and more than 386 flights to Naha Airport had been cancelled on Saturday.
