Typhoon Vamco Has Brought About The Worst Flooding In Philippines & These Photos Are Bitter Proof
These are some photographs and videos from the devastating condition the island is going through right now. #PrayForPhilippines
Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte on Thursday ordered government agencies to rush aid to people affected by Typhoon Vamco after the storm killed at least two people and brought the worst flooding in the capital Manila in years.
Tens of thousands of homes in low-lying suburbs were submerged by the floods, prompting residents to scramble onto rooftops awaiting rescue.
The latest typhoon comes as the Philippines is still grappling with a wave of COVID-19 infections and a battered economy.
Nearly three million households in and around Manila were without power as people waded through waist-high floods, carrying valuables and pets.
