MANILA, Philippines - Two kids were killed on Wednesday after their house was buried during a landslide due to the torrential rains in Rizal province.

Quoting the initial information from the Rizal Provincial Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office, a radio report said rescuers retrieved the bodies of John Michael Amor, 6; and his brother Rey, 3,  from the ruins of their home in Sitio Banbanin, Lukutang Maliit, Barangay San Isidro, Rodriguez town.

The victims were rushed to the nearest hospital but doctors could no longer revive them, the report said.

The incessant heavy downpour in the area triggered the landslide around 3:30 a.m.near the home of the Amors, the report added.

The report, however, did not mention the whereabouts of the victims' parents during the incident.
