DAVAO DISASTER. This screengrab from Agence France Presse TV aerial video footage taken on Wednesday shows the landslide in Davao de Oro province that killed at least six people and injured 31. President Marcos also conducted an aerial survey of the region already battered by heavy rains and flooding. Meanwhile, rescuers airlifted some of the injured to nearby hospitals, some still caked with mud from escaping two buses buried in the landslide.
A massive landslide buried a bus terminal and 55 houses near an Apex Mining Co. gold mine on Tuesday night, killing 28 people, mostly miners, and leaving 32 injured, according to an updated official tally. Rescue efforts had not resumed more than 30 minutes later as drones were flown to check for signs of potential secondary landslides that could endanger the lives of the rescuers, he added.On Friday rescuers found a three-year-old girl alive after nearly 60 hours under the rubble, but mostly they have only been finding bodies.
Military rescuers were set to employ specialised equipment, their commander, Brigadier-General Ronnie Babac, told the news conference.
