Students bolted for cover as a powerful 7.8-magnitude earthquake rocked a Philippine high school during a morning flag ceremony Monday, sending part of a campus structure crashing to the ground. Terrifying footage captured the chaos as students, teachers and parents scrambled to safety while the powerful offshore quake rattled Mindanao. Officials said thousands of families were affected and tsunami warnings sent coastal residents fleeing for higher ground. A strong aftershock struck hours later as emergency crews raced to assess widespread damage across the southern Philippines.
