At least 100 people have reportedly been killed by Typhoon Haiyan in one city, according to a Philippine official.

Capt John Andrews, deputy director general of the Civil Aviation Authority, said the bodies were lying in the streets of the city of Tacloban.

The storm ripped apart buildings and triggered landslides when it hit the central Philippines on Friday.

Four people were confirmed dead in the hours after the first impact.

Video from the city of Tacloban showed the city engulfed by water when the typhoon struck, the BBC's Jon Donnison reports from Manila.

Aid agencies are struggling to reach the city, as its airport has been badly damaged and only military flights are able to operate, he adds.

The Philippine government has praised the evacuation effort which at least until now seems to have kept the number of people killed relatively low.

But it may be days before the final death toll is known, our correspondent says.

Officials had said more than 12 million people were at risk. Much of the region affected had already been struggling to recover from an earthquake last month.

"We expect the level of destruction caused by Typhoon Haiyan to be extensive and devastating, and sadly we fear that many lives will be lost," said Save the Children's Philippines director Anna Lindenfors on Friday.

The typhoon is now heading for Vietnam, and is expected to make landfall on Sunday.

Vietnamese authorities have begun the mass evacuation of more than 100,000 people.

State media in Vietnam report that schools are being closed and people living in low lying coastal areas are being moved to temporary typhoon shelters on higher ground. Shipping has also been ordered back to port.
