Nestor Archival Leads Search After Cebu Landfill Collapse
Rescue teams intensified searches after a towering pile of garbage collapsed at the privately run Binaliw Landfill in Cebu City, killing one person and burying nearly 50, Nestor Archival said, with the missing-persons tally later revised to 34.At least 12 employees were pulled alive and hospitalized, Jason Morata said, as hundreds of rescuers on site were joined by another 500 workers and aerial photos showed multiple structures crushed under the weight of the waste.Authorities limited heavy equipment because sparks could ignite methane, investigators said the mound had been weakened by two typhoons and an earthquake in late 2025, and the operator
Prime Integrated has about 110 employees and says the site processes 1,000 tons of waste daily, the collapse was reported by
AFP.
