The National Disaster Management Agency in the Philippines reported on Monday that 101 people have died in addition to 66 others as a result of floods and landslides brought on by a tropical cyclone that hit the nation.
The organisation also stated that the tropical cyclone “Nagai,” which made landfall in the Philippines earlier this week, injured 70 people.
Over two million individuals were impacted, and at least 863,000 of them were forced to relocate.
More than 205,000 people, according to the organisation, live in evacuation centres.
On Monday, Ferdinand Marcos, the president of the Philippines, visited Kawa County to survey the flood-affected areas.
