Tears and destruction: Tropical storm Trami overruns the Philippines!

The tropical storm "Trami" left devastating traces in the Philippines and the number of fatalities has increased to 36! The main island of Luzon is particularly affected, where the active Vulkan Mayon became a real nightmare for the population not only through its activities, but also through massive rainfall. Sludge avalanches buried numerous houses and vehicles in the Bicol region, while the water in the province of Albay was meter high. Tragically, many people died because they drowned, met by falling trees or were buried by the landslides.

A total of over 2.65 million people suffer from the direct consequences of the storm, and almost 320,000 people had to flee from their large or small home sites. There have been yawning emptiness in the schools for three days - they remain closed! But despite the urgent emergency, some affected regions are still unavailable. The teams fight to free the streets of mud and ruins, to coordinate aid measures and to find the last destroyed.

President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. promises that help will arrive from all directions - on water, on land and from the air! The full mobilization of the military and all available resources is arranged to help people in need. Weather experts assume that "Trami" will soon leave the Philippines. But the damage is enormous and is reminiscent of the devastating typhoon that the country search home annually. The storm "Haiyan" is remembered as the worst storm after it cost more than 6,300 lives in 2013.
