A tragic landfill collapse in Cebu City, Philippines has left at least two people dead and dozens missing. Fifty sanitation workers were buried when a towering pile of refuse toppled over at the Binaliw Landfill on Thursday.

• The confirmed death toll stands at two, with 36 people still reported missing.
• Cebu Mayor Nestor Archival stated that hundreds of rescuers are on site, with an additional 500 expected, as search efforts are anticipated to last until Sunday.
• Eyewitness Rita Cogay, a compactor operator, narrowly escaped, describing the "garbage and the building coming down" moments after she stepped away.
• Rescuers face challenges as sparks could ignite methane gas, limiting equipment use at the four-storey high trash mountain.
• The Binaliw Landfill, operated by Prime Integrated Waste Solutions, processes 1,000 tons of municipal solid waste daily.
