Typhoon Dolphin is currently affecting southern Japan, resulting in several injuries and widespread blackouts. Reports indicate that five elderly individuals sustained non-life-threatening injuries, with three of them falling due to strong winds. The storm has prompted authorities to issue safety warnings and residents are advised to take precautions during the severe weather.

Following its impact in Japan, Typhoon Dolphin is now moving towards China, where authorities have taken significant measures in preparation. A red alert, the highest level of warning, has been issued as the storm is expected to reach coastal areas of Zhejiang and Fujian provinces.
