Rescuers ride a boat to reach residents trapped by flooding caused by Typhoon Gaemi and monsoon rains on July 24, 2024 in Quezon city, Metro Manila, Philippines. Monsoon rains, intensified by Typhoon Gaemi, have caused flooding and landslides throughout the Philippines, resulting in at least eight deaths and displacing over 600,000 people. The typhoon, located east of Taiwan Wednesday with up to 162 kph winds, did not make landfall in the Philippines but enhanced monsoon rains. In the region around the capital Manila, government work and schools were suspended due to severe overnight flooding. (Photo by Ezra Acayan/Getty Images)
