The Philippine government says it is facing its biggest ever logistical challenge after Typhoon Haiyan, which has affected up to 11 million people. Cabinet Secretary Rene Almendras said the government had been overwhelmed by the impact of Haiyan, one of the most powerful storms on record. The official death toll stands at more than 2,200, but local officials and aid workers say it could rise much higher. Meanwhile, aid is slowly beginning to arrive in the worst-affected regions.
