UN rushes aid as Typhoon Haiyan leaves Philippines counting dead | |
November 10, 2013 Typhoon Haiyan left as many as 10,000 people dead in the Philippines. The United Nations said it is stepping up critical relief operations in the Philippines as a result of the "devastating" impact of Haiyan since it made landfall on Nov. 8. "Access remains a key challenge as some areas are still cut off from relief operations," a spokesman in the UN office in Manila said.
