Super typhoon Fung-wong hit the Philippines’ northeastern coast Sunday, killing at least two people and forcing the evacuation of more than a million from areas prone to flooding and landslides.

The storm battered the region with strong winds and heavy rains, knocking down power lines as people sought shelter. It’s the biggest to threaten the Philippines in years.

Just this past week, another typhoon caused widespread destruction and killed more than 200 people.
