Seven people, including five children, were killed after a landslide buried a house following days of heavy rains in southern Davao de Oro province, a disaster official has said. Two people were injured and approximately 10 were missing, Ednar Dayanghirang, director of the regional civil defence agency, told on Thursday DZRH radio. Authorities suspended search and rescue operations due to continuing rains in a residential area for small-scale miners, he said.
