A two-year-old girl died when their house reportedly collapsed due to strong winds in Barangay Taluksangay, Zamboanga City morning on Saturday, September 14, 2024.

According to the local government, the girl was hit by debris. She was rushed to the hospital but did not make it there alive.

The severe weather condition experienced in the city also caused power interruption affecting some areas.
