Pictures released by local fire authorities showed debris from broken structures set against a landscape of huge mountains of rubbish. Local networks also showed rescuers and officials arriving at the site for search and rescue operations, while residents looked on.
Cebu city Mayor Nestor Archival said in a Facebook post that search and rescue operations were ongoing at the Binaliw landfill, where 110 workers were on site when the accident occurred at roughly 4:17 p.m.
