Typhoon Hagupit Kills 21 In The Philippines

More communities in the Philippines are being evacuated as Typhoon Hagupit moves across the country, causing flooding and power cuts, but relatively minor casualties.

At least 21 people have been killed and around a million people fled their homes fearing another disaster on the scale of Typhoon Haiyan the year before. 

More than 7,000 died in the biggest typhoon ever recorded on land, but the latest storm weakened as it closed in on the Philippines.

The driving wind and rain will cause problems for several days as the slow moving storm makes its way across the country, now travelling at only 6mph (10kph).

In Batangas City, a normally busy port south of the capital Manila, hundreds of trucks are parked up at the side of the road because it is too dangerous for ferries to operate.

The authorities in the city have opened 14 shelters to look after some of its poorest residents who live in shanty towns close to the sea.
