A powerful earthquake struck off the southern Philippines on Friday morning, killing at least two people, damaging schools and an international airport, and forcing thousands to flee coastal towns amid tsunami warnings.
The 7.4-magnitude quake hit at 9.43am local time (01.43am GMT) about 43km east of Manay town in Davao Oriental province at a depth of 23 kilometres, according to the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs).
