Philippines Earthquake: Eight Deaths Reported on Luzon.
A 6.4-magnitude tremor struck the southern Philippines on Tuesday, US geologists said, just a day after a deadly quake that rocked the country’s north.
The US Geological Survey said the earthquake hit near Tutubigan, which is hundreds of kilometres south of the quake that hit near Manila.
The magnitude 6.1 tremor hit at 17:11 local time (09:11 GMT) on Monday killing at least 11 people.
An airport was seriously damaged and at least two buildings were destroyed.
Authorities fear dozens of people remain trapped underneath a collapsed building in the province of Pampanga, north-west of the capital Manila.
The province is believed to be the worst-hit area. Its governor, Lilia Pineda, told Reuters news agency that 20 people had been injured there.
BREAKING: WhatsApp Voice Calls Used to Inject Israeli Spyware on Phones. A vulnerability in WhatsApp allows attackers to inject spyware on the victim's phones. This vulnerability has already been used by an Israeli intelligence company to inject spyware on to phones. The vulnerability exists on both iPhones and Android phones. WhatsApp claims to have a patch ready, Duta recommends that all users install them as soon as they are available. The malicious code, developed by the secretive Israeli company NSO Group, could be transmitted even if users did not answer their phones, and the calls often disappeared from call logs. WhatsApp is too early into its own investigations of the vulnerability to estimate how many phones were targeted using this method, a person familiar with the issue said.
