Philippines Hit with Strongest Typhoon Since Haiyan 
----------------------------------------------------


 
At least 10 people have died in a typhoon churning across the
Philippines. Nearly 370,000 people have been forced to evacuate their
homes as the cyclone makes its way to the capital Manila. Typhoon
Rammasun is the strongest to hit the Philippines since Typhoon Haiyan
last year, one of the worst ever recorded. The official death toll from
Haiyan stands at more than 6,100.
