Taiwan's annual war games cut back by incoming Typhoon Gaemi

Taiwan cancelled some drills in its annual war games as Typhoon Gaemi barrelled towards the island on Tuesday, expected to bring heavy rains and strong winds when it makes landfall later this week. But as Gaemi -- currently categorised as a medium-strength typhoon -- edged closer to Taiwan Tuesday, the island's northern regions started seeing heavy rains, with the Central Weather Administration predicting landfall by late Wednesday.
