Flash floods swept through towns in Romblon province, Philippines on Friday (October 9), after days of torrential rain due to a low pressure area in the region.

Footage shows the muddy torrents of water violently flowing across Banton town, located at the lower part of the mountainous province.

Resident Jun Dave Ilisan said the flash flood almost washed away their vehicles when the water flowed down from the mountains to their town.

He said: “We secured them with ropes and had to flee to higher ground. The flash flood was gone after a few hours but our homes were dirty with mud.”

No one was hurt in the flash floods but officials have evacuated hundreds of people across the Philippines.
