Floods and a landslide killed seven people in the Philippines on Monday (September 2) as tropical storm Yagi, locally known as Enteng, dumped heavy rain on the capital Manila and nearby provinces, a disaster agency official said.

In a hilly community in Antipolo east of Manila, three people were killed, including two schoolboys and a 27-year-old pregnant woman, when a landslide hit two houses, according to Relly Bernardo, the city's disaster management chief.

Eyewitness video recorded on Monday showed flooded roads in Antipolo.

The Philippines typically records an average of 20 tropical storms annually, many of those typhoons, with landslides among the biggest causes of casualties.
