Rescuers on Wednesday (July 24) rushed to save trapped residents from their homes after torrential rains, caused by an enhanced monsoon and Typhoon Carina, inundated several parts of the Philippine capital and nearby provinces.

In the riverside city of Marikina, in Metro Manila, emergency workers waded through waist-deep waters and used rubber dinghies to rescue residents from their homes.

The storm, which is strengthening as it gusts towards Taiwan, did not make landfall in the Philippines but has intensified seasonal monsoon rains, causing landslides and flooding over the past few days.

At least 12 people have died and more than 600,000 are displaced due to the storm, known locally as Typhoon Carina, the national disaster agency said.
