BUNGA, Philippines, April 12, 2022 (BSS/AFP) - The death toll from the 
strongest storm to hit the Philippines this year rose to 42 on Tuesday, as 
rescuers recovered more bodies from villages devastated by rain-induced 
landslides.

     Emergency personnel suspended the search for survivors around Baybay 
City, in the central province of Leyte, in the late afternoon as it was "too 
dangerous" to continue in the dark, said Marissa Miguel Cano, public 
information officer for the city government.
