Several posts on X (for example, here) said it was a typhoon that hit Japan on Sept. 8. Other posts say it was a hurricane that struck Libya about three days later (here). Another Douyin video also claimed it was a hurricane in Libya that killed 5,300 people on Sept. 12. On YouTube, a video uploader said this happened in the Philippines on Sept. 11.
