Hanoi, Vietnam and Manila, Philippines (CNN) Typhoon Vamco is hurtling towards Vietnam, where it is expected to make landfall Sunday, after leaving 67 dead in the Philippines, making it that country's deadliest storm this year. "This is a very strong typhoon," said Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc, warning provinces in Vamco's projected path to prepare for its impact. The provinces planned to evacuate 468,000 people by the end of Saturday, according to state media citing the government's disaster management authority. Residents affected by Typhoon Vamco scuffle over relief goods on November 14, 2020 in Rodriguez, Rizal province, Philippines. Vietnam is prone to destructive storms and flooding due to its long coastline.
