Haiyan update

Up to 10,000 are said to have died in Tacloban, 300 in Samar and hundreds more elsewhere. Tacloban is the worse hit. Millions have been displaced with no means of getting water or food. Relief effort is currently underway.

The impact is devastating; homes have been flattened  or blown away, airports damaged and infrastructure destroyed or damaged. It may take months or years for the country to recover from the devastation.

Haiyan is now heading towards Vietnam where thousands have been evacuated.
