At least six people dead after powerful typhoon hits the Philippines

The Philippines is on red alert after a powerful typhoon slammed across the northeast of the country.

At least six rescuers have died after being hit by a collapsed wall as they were helping residents trapped in flood waters.
The most powerful typhoon to hit the country this year caused landslides, flash flooding and dangerous storm surges.

Tens of thousands of people have been evacuated from the typhoon’s path. Many more are still scrambling to move their belongings and livestock to higher ground.

The storm was packing maximum sustained winds of 195 kilometres an hour as it charged towards the archipelago nation after an unprecedented “explosive intensification”, the state weather forecaster said.

The Philippines is regularly ravaged by storms, with scientists warning they are becoming more powerful as the world gets warmer because of climate change.
