Hind Al Soulia - Riyadh - MANILA — Super Typhoon Man-yi, also known locally as Pepito, made landfall in the Philippines late Saturday, injuring at least two people and displacing over 110,000 as heavy rains and strong winds wreaked havoc across the country.

The National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council reported that 111,658 people have been evacuated to emergency shelters, with the storm impacting over 850,000 people nationwide, according to Inquirer.Net.

Flight operations were severely disrupted, with 75 domestic and 18 international flights canceled, including those operated by Philippine Airlines and Cebu Pacific, the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines confirmed.

Strong winds from the typhoon uprooted trees, downed power lines, and ripped off roofs, creating widespread damage in affected areas.

Catanduanes island, where the typhoon made landfall, bore the brunt of the storm, with maximum sustained winds of 185 kilometers (115 miles) per hour recorded late Saturday.

The government has deployed over 36,000 rescue personnel from the army, air force, navy, and coastguard to assist affected communities and respond to the typhoon's destruction.
