He said, "Christopher Joe," presidential adviser: The Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte plans to visit the northern provinces hit by the typhoon, and will inspect the situation and assess the damage caused by Mangkhut.

Typhoon Mangkhut moved out of the Philippines, yesterday evening, Saturday, after hitting the northern Luzon region with heavy rains and strong winds, which caused power and communications outages.

Filipino rescuers deployed to the hardest hit rural and mountainous areas. The wind speed reached 330 km/h in some places
