  • 6 years ago
Several windows of a high-rise building in Hong Kong were broken by high winds during Typhoon Mangkhut.

Footage filmed today (September 17) at the Harbourfront complex in Kowloon shows gaps in the glass façade where windows were blown out.

Authorities said Mangkhut is the most severe storm to hit Hong Kong since records began.

The Typhoon Signal 10 was raised just before 10 am on Sunday, along with the Red rainstorm warning. Mangkhut left a path of destruction in the city, downing trees, smashing windows and cutting out power for thousands of households.

Mangkhut killed more than 64 in the Philippines on its path to Hong Kong.
