Manila, Nov 12 (TIWN) Typhoon Vamco, the third powerful cyclone to batter Philippines in 11 days, made landfall, unleashing fierce winds and intense rains that triggered landslide, rockslide and flash floods in regions ravaged by Super Typhoon Goni early this month.
Vamco also felled trees and caused a massive power outage in large parts of Manila and many provinces on Wednesday night, Xinhua reported. At least one man died due to the typhoon, and three fishermen were reported missing, the country's disaster agency said.
