A Philippine flag flutters atop the control tower of a damaged airport after super Typhoon Haiyan battered Tacloban city, central Philippines, November 9, 2013. Possibly the strongest typhoon ever to hit land devastated the central Philippine city of Tacloban, killing at least 100 people, turning houses into rubble and leveling the airport in a surge of flood water and high wind, officials said on Saturday. The toll of death and damage from Typhoon Haiyan on Friday is expected to rise sharply as rescue workers and soldiers reach areas cut off by the massive, fast-moving storm which weakened to a category 4 on Saturday.
