Typhoon Bavi hits China

Typhoon Bavi made landfall in China's eastern province of Zhejiang late Saturday night, state media reported.

Nearly 2 million people had been evacuated as the country braced for Bavi, which is expected to move northwestward inland after the landfall, with its intensity gradually weakening.

Bavi previously battered Japan's southern islands with heavy rain and strong winds, and brought life in Taiwan to a near standstill.
