Tacloban, a coastal city southeast of Manila, bore the brunt with villages as far as one kilometer from the shore flooded. Most of the deaths appear to have been caused by surging sea water strewn with debris that many said resembled a tsunami.

“People are walking like zombies looking for food,” said Jenny Chu, a medical student in Leyte province. “It’s like a movie.” The scale of the typhoon’s apocalyptic destruction is now starting to emerge. Strong, sustained winds exceeded 315 kilometers per hour, leveling entire towns.

Emergency relief efforts are underway amid the devastation caused by Super Typhoon Haiyan. Reports suggest widespread shortages of food, water and medicine, with President Benigno Aquino deploying soldiers to some of the worst hit areas. The US has also sent approximately 90 Marines and sailors to the Philippines. The city of Tacloban is one of the worst hit areas, as seen in this video from the World Food Programme.

World sends emergency

relief to battered

Philippines

Giving Aid




The United States, Australia and the United Nations are mobilizing emergency aid to the Philippines as the scale of the devastation unleashed by Super Typhoon Haiyan emerges. The Pentagon is sending military personnel and equipment to assist with the relief effort following the typhoon, which may have killed more than 10,000 people in what is feared to be the country's worst natural disaster. "The United States is already providing significant humanitarian assistance, and we stand ready to further assist the government's relief and recovery efforts," US President Barack Obama said in a statement.


Some 90 Marines and sailors, and two KC-130J Hercules aircraft, left Japan for the Philippines on Saturday, with equipment including tilt-rotor aircraft which can operate without runways, Marines Colonel John Peck said.


The Australian government pledged Aus$10 million dollars (US$9.38 million), with Foreign Minister Julie Bishop describing the unfolding tragedy as "absolutely devastating" and on a "massive scale".

The sum includes Aus$4 million towards a UN global appeal and Aus$3 million for Australian non-government organizations. The aid will include tarpaulins, sleeping mats, mosquito nets, water containers and health and hygiene kits. A team of Australian medics will leave on Wednesday via a C17 military transport plane from Darwin to join disaster experts already on the ground, the government said, after it disbursed emergency funds worth US$490,000 on Sunday.


United Nations leader Ban Ki-moon promised

UN humanitarian agencies would "respond

rapidly to help people in need".

The UN children's fund UNICEF said a cargo

plane carrying 60 tonnes of aid including shelters

and medicine would arrive in the Philippines

Tuesday, to be followed by deliveries of water

purification and sanitation equipment.


Pope Francis led 60,000 people in Sunday prayers for the Philippines, urging the faithful to provide "concrete help" to the largely Roman Catholic country.


The European Commission said it would give three million euros ($4 million) towards the relief efforts.

Britain offered an emergency support package worth $9.6 million. Germany's embassy in Manila said an initial shipment of 23 tonnes of aid was being flown in and German rescue teams were already at work.


The British Embassy on Sunday said United Kingdom will be sending up to £6 million or about P414 million in additional aid for humanitarian efforts. This tops an earlier aid of £4 million or P276 million set for emergency responses on the Zamboanga violence and Bohol earthquake.
