Severe flooding caused by heavy rains, which triggered by the rapid rising water level of the Mae Taeng River, in the wake of the Typhoon Yagi, ravaged Thailand's tourist destination province of Chiang Mai. At least two elephants died as a result in a popular elephant sanctuary and thousands of residents and tourists were forced to evacuate while the city economic zone was badly damaged, according to Chiang Mai governor Nirat Pongsitthavorn.
