THE PHILIPPINES – An offshore earthquake with a magnitude of 7.8 hit the Southern Philippines on Monday, killing at least 35 people, injuring more than 200 others mostly in ruined buildings, and sending a 3-foot tsunami into nearby coasts.
The major earthquake was the strongest to hit The Philippines this year, and officials warned people to seek advice before returning to damaged buildings and houses, which could collapse due to aftershocks.
