A man was viciously attacked by a shark after being knocked off his hydrofoil surfboard in the Canary Islands.

The man, who has not been named, was practising Downwind foiling some two miles west of Fuerteventura.

Spanish TV channel Antena 3 reported that he was in the water when the shark attacked his board and bit him on the leg on Sunday.

The media outlet published a video showing two bloody gashes just below the knee.

The wounds were described as 'deep' and panicked witnesses.

The man was seemingly able to fight off the shark and scramble back to the shore in the area of Los Molinos, a small hamlet to the west.

Sharks have been spotted before off Fuerteventura, and beaches have had to be closed when jet ski patrols raised the alert over the sea creatures near the shore.

Heavy rain triggered by tropical storm Wipha has caused severe flooding in the central Vietnamese province of Nghe An, killing at least three people and leaving one more missing.

With a long coastline facing the South China Sea, Vietnam is prone to typhoons that often cause deadly floods and mudslides. Wipha is the first major storm to hit the country in 2025.

Wipha made landfall in Vietnam on July 22, after battering Hong Kong and China and worsening monsoon rain and flooding in the Philippines.

One of the victims was buried by a landslide while another was washed away by a strong current, reported the Kinh Te Moi Truong newspaper, citing information from the People's Committee of Nghe An.

A large tree lies across a road in Floreat.
Residents say a freak tornado that ripped through Perth's coastal suburbs sounded "like a jet engine" as it felled trees and tore up the roofs of homes.

Multi-million-dollar properties were damaged and debris covered the roads in the affluent suburb of City Beach after the Wednesday-night storm the Bureau of Meteorology has now confirmed was a tornado.

The storm, which came with little warning, was detected intensifying around 5:20pm.

"[The storm] became significant as it immediately approached the coastline, so very limited scope for warning," meteorologist Jessica Lingard told ABC Radio Perth.

"[There's] a lot of damage that we've seen overnight and it does look like it was a tornado that caused the damage in City Beach."

Images and videos of a waterspout forming over the ocean were circulated in community social media pages.
