No Filipinos have been affected or injured by Typhoon Nanmadol in Japan, the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) said Monday.

In a text message, DFA spokesperson, Ma. Teresita Daza, said the Philippine Consulate General in Osaka continues to monitor the situation.

“While some Filipinos in Kagoshima Prefecture have opted to heed the call of their local governments to evacuate to nearby evacuation centers, no Filipino has been permanently displaced by the storm,” Daza said.

Typhoon Nanmadol forced airlines to cancel flights and affected train operations.

It also left about 300,000 families in Kyushu without power supply.

Daza assured the public that the Philippine Consulate General in Osaka continues to contact the Filipino community organizations under its jurisdiction particularly in the southwestern area of Japan. (PNA)
