Cebu landslide victims text for help

(UTV|COLOMBO) – A landslide in the Philippines has killed at least 21 people and left dozens missing, with some texting for help from under the rubble, say Police.

The slide on Thursday (20) engulfed two villages in Naga in Cebu Province.

It comes days after the north of the Philippines was hit by a typhoon, killing more than 80 people.

Typhoon Mangkhut did not directly hit Cebu Province but lead to stronger monsoon rains, increasing the risk of landslides across the country.
