More than 100 people died after Tropical Storm Nalgae hit the Philippines on Thursday. The storm, which was one of the most destructive storms to hit the country this year, unleashed deadly mudslides and flash flooding.

Rescuers were still combing hard-hit Maguinanao's southern Kusiong village for survivors and bodies on Monday, after as many as 80 to 100 people may have been buried by a mudslide or swept away by floodwaters. At least 4,100 homes and more than 40,000 acres of crops were damaged by the storm, The Associated Press reported.
