Tropical storm Nalgae: 98 dead in one of most destructive storms to hit Philippines this year
Dozens missing and feared dead in a mudslide-hit mountainside village, while more than a million people were swamped by floods in other provinces
Nearly 100 people have died in one of the most destructive storms to hit the Philippines this year, with dozens more feared missing in a mudslide-hit mountainside village, officials said on Monday.
At least 53 of the 98 people who died were from Maguindanao in the Bangsamoro autonomous region, which was swamped by unusually heavy rains from Tropical Storm Nalgae. The storm blew out of the country and into the South China Sea on Sunday, but more than a million people remained swamped by flood water in several provinces.
