Typhoon Haiyan

Typhoon Haiyan is the typhoon that swept across the Philippines which has left at least four million people struggling for shelter, clean water and food. The typhoon has killed 255 people but it is likely that it has killed around 10,000 others too. Winds of over 200 miles per hour were recorded there. 

The head of charity Red Cross there, Richard Gordon said: "There's an awful lot of casualties... a lot of destruction,"

"It's absolute bedlam right now, but hopefully it will turn out better as more and more supplies get into the area."

He said roads had now been cleared to allow relief workers to get to the hardest hit areas, but that they expected to find many more casualties.

"It's only now that they were able to get in and we're beginning just to bring in the necessary food items... as well as water and other things that they need."

The typhoon is now heading for Vietnam and over 600,000 people have been evacuated from the country as a safety precaution.However, the storm is posing less of a threat
