Britons have been urged not to travel to the Philippines as a super typhoon has left four people dead.
Super Typhoon Fung-wong, one of the year's most powerful storms, hit land on Sunday, unleashing fierce winds and heavy rain.
Authorities confirmed on Monday the tropical cyclone had killed four people, including two from drowning and fallen debris.
A mudslide buried a house in the town of Philippine town of Kayapa, killing two children, regional civil defence official Alvin Ayson said.
The Foreign Office (FCDO) has warned Britons against travel to all parts of the Philippines.
It stated: "Typhoon Fung-Wong, locally named Uwan, made landfall in the Philippines on November 9, bringing damaging winds, heavy rainfall and coastal flooding to large parts of Luzon and the Visayas.
"There are reports of disruption to transport (including domestic flights), electricity and communications in affected areas.
"The risk of flooding and landslides in affected areas is likely to remain over the coming days."

The FCDO advised any Britons in the affected areas to follow advice from local authorities and monitor local weather.
More than one million people were evacuated ahead of Fung-wong making landfall in the eastern town of Dinalungan in Aurora province on Sunday night.
The typhoon damaged houses in the northern city of Santiago in Isabela province.
Tree branches and electric posts were also felled by the storm.

"We could not sleep last night because of the winds hitting our metal sheets and the tree branches falling," said Romeo Mariano, who was sheltering with his grandmother in their home.
"Almost all of the tree branches nearby fell, and when we got out to check our home, we saw the damage," he added.
Over 400 flights have been cancelled since Sunday, the civil aviation regulator said.
It is the 21st storm to occur this year in the Philippines, coming after Typhoon Kalmaegi killed 224 last week, with five dead in Vietnam.

The latest typhoon is forecast to hit Taiwan's densely populated west coast on Wednesday.
Its heaviest rain is expected along the mountainous east coast, where 18 people died in September in flooding unleashed by an earlier typhoon.
The government has already ordered evacuations in the town of Guangfu, Taiwan.
