A devastating magnitude 7.8 earthquake struck southern Philippines, killing at least 32 people and injuring over 200, while triggering a 3-foot tsunami and a deadly landslide that buried homes and claimed 13 more lives. Buildings collapsed, infrastructure crumbled, and panic swept through cities like General Santos — a vital tuna export hub — as tremors rattled as far away as Japan and Palau. President Marcos Jr. has ordered school closures and mobilized emergency aid, while the airport shut down, canceling 17 flights. Rescue teams are racing to help survivors amid ongoing aftershock risks and unconfirmed deaths.
