In Naga City, authorities said days of heavy monsoon rains caused a steep slope to collapse, burying homes in barangays Tinaan and Naalad. At least 3 were killed by the landslide.
Search and rescue in the area began at 6 am Thursday, and responders have since been digging through debris and thick mud to look for survivors.
