MANILA, Aug 20 — Dozens of people were injured in the southern Philippines Saturday in a crush of students and parents seeking a cash handout ahead of the reopening of schools, authorities said.

In the southern city of Zamboanga, about 5,000 people stood outside a high school where cash was to be given out. Tulfo told reporters he had to call on riot police to stop people forcing their way through the front gate of his office compound in Manila on Saturday as they sought cash aid.
