Typhoon No. 22, which hit the central part of the Philippines on the 17th of this month, has caused further damage, and Filipino police have announced that 169 people have been killed and 50 people are missing so far.
The damage spans remote islands, and rescue and support activities are difficult.
In the Philippines, from the night of the 16th to the 17th of this month, Typhoon No. 22 passed through the central part of Cebu Island, and houses collapsed and floods occurred in various places.
The damage has spread further, and Philippine police announced on the night of 19th Japan time that 169 people have died and 50 people are missing, mainly in central Cebu and Bohol.
In addition, it is said that more than 180,000 residents who lost their homes have been evacuated to schools.
The disaster response authorities are investigating the damage situation, but the damage is spread over remote islands in various places, and some islands cannot be contacted, so the overall situation cannot be grasped.
In response to this typhoon, the Philippine government decided on the 19th to contribute 2 billion pesos, or more than 4.5 billion yen in Japanese yen, to the victims' water, food, tents and other relief supplies. The roads have been cut off and the harbor has been damaged, making rescue and support activities difficult.
