As the search for those who are alleged to be out of contact continued, 33 people were also left with 152 on Wednesday.
The death was caused by the typhoon’s outer bands, which caused a barrier lake in Hualien County to overflow and pour water into Guangfu, the town.
Authorities must “seize the golden rescue window,” according to Taiwan’s Premier Cho Jung-tai, and the deaths, which mostly occurred on the first floors of buildings, must be investigated.

“Tomorrow, we will send a naval vessel from Cartagena with all the necessary supplies to assist the flotilla and conduct a rescue operation.”
In what flotilla organizers described as “an alarmingly dangerous escalation” on Wednesday night, activists described a wave of drone attacks by Israeli aircraft and other types of aircraft.
Low-flying drones targeted several boats, according to passengers on board, who dropped “unidentified objects” like flashbangs and other “unidentified objects” on and near other “unidentified objects.” According to them, deliberate radio jamming had also caused “widespread obstruction in communications” on the ships.
After Defense Minister Guido Crosetto’s condemnation of the overnight attacks, the Italian navy announced that it would send a frigate to assist in any rescue operations involving the flotilla.
The flotilla, which is currently said to be made up of about 50 civilian boats and is reportedly filled with aid supplies, is led by two left-wing lawmakers from Italy’s left-wing opposition. The pair are hoping to break Israel’s seablockade of the Gaza Strip.
Italian Prime Minister Antonio Tajani also made an observation regarding the flotilla, which includes journalists, journalists, lawyers, Swedish climate campaigners, journalists, and members of parliament and MEPs.
The foreign ministry had already informed Israeli authorities that any operation ordered by them must be conducted in accordance with international law and the principle of absolute caution, according to a statement from the ministry.
According to the statement, Minister Tajani has requested information from the Italian Embassy in Tel Aviv and reiterated its previous request to the Israeli government to ensure the personnel on board’s absolute protection.
The Global Sumud Flotilla called on UN member states to put the attacks on the UNGA’s agenda for talks, blaming Israel’s repeated attempts to intimidate flotilla participants in a statement.
Thunberg, who is attempting to break Israel’s maritime hold of Gaza, claimed drones abound every night for the flotilla.
