KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 24 — Two Malaysian nationals are currently receiving medical treatment for minor injuries sustained in Taiwan following the passage of Typhoon Champi, the Foreign Ministry confirmed today.
According to the ministry, both individuals are in stable condition and are being attended to at medical facilities in Taiwan. The cases have been documented and relevant Malaysian missions in the region are monitoring their situation closely.
Typhoon Champi, which made landfall in Taiwan earlier this week, brought severe weather conditions including strong winds and heavy rainfall to the island. The natural disaster prompted authorities to issue warnings across affected areas and activate emergency response protocols.
The Foreign Ministry said it is maintaining contact with the two nationals and their families in Malaysia, ensuring they receive appropriate consular assistance throughout their recovery. Malaysian diplomatic missions have been coordinating with local authorities to provide any necessary support.
No further details regarding the circumstances of the injuries or the identities of the individuals were disclosed by the ministry at this time.
