问题 What happened to a woman and her three small grandchildren?
  
In the Philippines, at least 16 people are dead after a typhoon battered the country’s main island of Luzon, leaving some of the worst flooding the capital has seen in years. Rain continues to fall as Typhoon Nesat crosses the South China Sea toward Vietnam.
    Typhoon Nesat slammed into the Philippines, dumping heavy rain all day on the capital Manila and about two dozen provinces. Gusts reach 115 miles an hour. Forecasters say a storm surge combined with high tide caused waist-high flooding that closed off Manila streets and made cars float. The head of the Civil Defense Office Benito Ramos says multiple agencies are helping flood victims get food and medicine as well as shelter.
    The Armed Forces of the Philippine National Police are now busy in the rescue operations for all people.
    In the capital, strong winds knocked down a wall that buried a woman and her three small grandchildren. A power outage left nearly two million people in the dark. Luzon has around 48 million residents.
