(9 Jan 2026) RESTRICTIONS SUMMARY: ++UPDATES STORYLINE++ ASSOCIATED PRESS Binaliw, Cebu City, Philippines - 9 January 2026 ++MUTE++ 1. Various of aerials of landfill and collapsed waste segregation facility STORYLINE: An avalanche of garbage and debris buried or trapped workers in low-slung buildings at a landfill in the Philippines, killing one person, injuring a dozen and leaving 38 others missing, officials said Friday. Dozens of rescuers retrieved 13 people alive overnight and were searching for the missing still trapped after the mountain of garbage, earth and debris collapsed on them Thursday afternoon in the village of Binaliw in Cebu City, officials and police said. Landfill workers were among those affected, but it's not clear if there were neighboring residents or others involved as well. One of those rescued, a female landfill worker, died while being brought to a hospital, regional police director Brig. Gen. Roderick Maranan told The Associated Press, adding the rest survived with injuries and were hospitalized. Search and rescue efforts were continuing for 38 missing, Cebu Mayor Nestor Archival and the Office of Civil Defense said Friday. Authorities and officials at the waste management facility, which has 110 employees, were to hold an emergency meeting Friday, Archival said. One of the buildings hit by the wall of garbage that cascaded down in the landfill was a warehouse where workers separated recyclable waste and rubbish, Maranan said, adding that it remains unclear if nearby houses were also affected. Such landfills and open dumpsites have long been a source of safety and health concerns in many cities and towns in the Philippines, especially in areas close to poor communities, where residents scavenge for junk and leftover food in the garbage heaps.
