At least nine people are reported dead or missing in massive floods in the Philippine capital as a tropical storm lashed the eastern side of the country.
A wall, weakened by floodwaters, collapsed in a suburb of Manila, killing a father and child.
Four children drowned in a flood while three others were swept away by a swollen river outside the capital.
Flooding has been reported in many districts with water in some areas reaching as high as the rooftops of one-storey buildings.
