A large fire engulfed a residential area in Isla Puting Bato, Tondo, Manila on Sunday (November 24).
Drone footage shared by the Manila government’s disaster management office showed the extent of the fire, which razed the houses along the capital’s port area.
Authorities have yet to investigate the source of the fire, which is usually caused by faulty electrical wiring.
The Philippines has a patchy record in enforcing fire safety in buildings, homes and offices. In August, 11 people died after a five-storey apartment burned down in Manila’s Chinatown.
