UPDATE: At least five dead in Philippines tremor after two buildings collapse near Manila - official
Residents sit outside after being evacuated from the condominium building after an earthquake in Makati City, Philippines, April 22, 2019.
"We believe there are still people trapped in the four-storey building," Pineda said, adding 20 people have so far been rescued and taken to hospital as night fell. The quake that rumbled across the northern Philippines caused skyscrapers to sway, as they are designed to do, in Manila. "This was the second strongest quake I've felt in my entire life," she told AFP as she joined hundreds of others in the courtyard of an office building, waiting for the all clear."We planned how to evacuate the building. There were too many people going down the stairs, so we waited for our turn. People looked in shock, but no one was shouting or anything like that," she said.
