Philippines
14 DEAD AS TYPHOON HITS
02 Nov 2009
At least 14 people were dead and four missing in the Philippines a day after Typhoon Mirinae roared through the country. Mirinae was the fourth typhoon to affect the archipelago of more than 7,000 islands in a month. It quickly dissipated after Saturday's landfall, becoming a tropical storm.
Mirinae was forecast to weaken further before hitting Vietnam on Monday.
