Tropical storm Lingling killed at least 64 people and left another 110 missing as it cut a swath of destruction across the central and southern Philippines on Wednesday, stunned civil defense officials said.
The heaviest hit area was the southern island of Camiguin, where at least 54 people died after tornadoes battered its five coastal towns and flash floods washed away an entire village.

And local officials said Cebu, a metropolis of 800,000 people and the country`s second largest city, was in a state of calamity.
Lingling, packing winds of 75 kilometers an hour, crept in from the pacific ocean on Tuesday morning, dumping heavy rain on central islands and sections of the major southern island of Mindanao, including Cagayan De Oro city.

“So far based on the official report given to us by our men in the area, 54 people were killed and 110 were missing in Camiguin, Military southern command spokesman colonel Danilo Servando said over radio station DZRH.
