Waves batter China as typhoon approaches

Waves more than 20m high have been battering the coast of China's Zhejiang province as Typhoon Fitow approaches.

Hundreds of thousands of people in the area have been told to leave their homes and more than 65,000 boats have been called back to shore.

The National Meteorological Centre has issued a red alert for the storm, saying it was expected to make landfall in China late Sunday or early Monday.
