Typhoon Man-yi has left at least seven people dead in a landslide, destroyed scores of houses and displaced large numbers of villagers before blowing away from the northern Philippines, worsening the crisis wreaked by multiple back-to-back storms.

Man-yi was one of the strongest of the six major storms to hit the northern Philippines in less than a month and had sustained winds of up to 195 kilometers (125 miles) per hour when it slammed into the eastern island province of Catanduanes on Saturday night.

Typhoon Man-yi regained strength on Sunday afternoon, bringing heavy rain and powerful winds to the Philippines, hours after making landfall in a nation still recovering from a series of recent storms that killed more than 160 people and caused widespread damage.
