ISTANBUL: The death toll climbed to 90 on Thursday from a landslide that struck the Philippines and buried two buses, according to the Philippines News. Search efforts have yielded only bodies one week later after the tragedy occurred Feb. 6 at the Apex Mining Company site in southern Mindanao. Thirty-seven victims are still missing, according to the Management of the Dead and Missing -- a government agency. The landslides hit the waiting area where workers were aboard the two buses at around 7.30 p.m. local time. Source: Anadolu Agency
