China evacuates over one million people as Typhoon Bavi nears the eastern coast and brings strong winds and rain. Multiple reports say authorities in China’s Zhejiang province move large numbers of residents from higher-risk areas. The Hindu reports that Zhejiang evacuations reach more than 1.7 million people, while Shanghai relocates about 34,000 residents from high-risk areas by Saturday noon. Other outlets report similar totals, with some describing evacuations of around nearly two million as Bavi approaches and makes landfall. One report also states that the evacuation figure is close to two million as the country braces for the storm’s impact. After the typhoon’s landfall in Zhejiang, authorities continue emergency measures in affected areas. Overall, the coverage is consistent that large-scale evacuations are carried out along parts of China’s eastern coast, particularly Zhejiang, with additional relocations reported in Shanghai for areas considered at higher risk.
