MANILA, Philippines — President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. ordered government agencies on Monday to implement preemptive measures, including evacuations in high-risk areas, in preparation for Super Typhoon Bavi, which would be named Inday when it enters the Philippine area of responsibility (PAR) between Tuesday night and Wednesday morning.
“This is a whole-of-government approach, so all agencies involved need to act. That is the president’s directive,” Palace press officer Claire Castro said.
As of 3 p.m. Monday, Bavi was estimated at 2,120 kilometers east of southeastern Luzon, packing maximum sustained winds of 205 kilometers per hour (km/h) near the center, gusts of up to 250 km/h, and moving west-northwestward at 20 km/h.
