Philippines Mobilizes Extensive Rescue Relief After Deadly 6.9 Earthquake
A magnitude 6.9 earthquake struck off the coast of Cebu Island in the Philippines, causing widespread destruction, with collapsed buildings and numerous casualties. Rescue teams are actively searching for survivors amid the rubble, with video footage showing desperate nighttime rescues involving relatives pulling victims from debris. The disaster has resulted in at least 69 deaths and over 150 injuries, prompting Cebu's governor to declare a state of emergency. Relief efforts have been rapidly mobilized by various government agencies, including the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) and the Office of the Vice President (OVP), delivering essential supplies such as food, blankets, and medical kits to affected areas. The PCSO, directed by President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr., emphasized a holistic response and coordination with authorities for ongoing aid and rehabilitation. Meanwhile, the OVP, led by Vice President Sara Duterte, is organizing relief distribution and has placed regional satellite offices on standby to support recovery operations, despite challenges posed by damaged infrastructure.
