At least 19 people were killed and 12 remain missing after a powerful 7.8-magnitude earthquake struck southern Philippines on Monday morning. The quake caused widespread damage across Mindanao, toppling buildings, triggering landslides, and disrupting power and water services. More than 100 people were injured and thousands were displaced, while rescue teams continued searching for survivors in hard-hit areas, including General Santos City. Authorities also issued tsunami warnings and ordered coastal residents to move to higher ground as aftershocks rattled the region.
