Philippines Ends Search, Rescue After Deadly Magnitude 6.9 Cebu Earthquake
Search and rescue operations in Cebu have concluded following a magnitude 6.9 earthquake that struck Bogo City and nearby areas, with all missing persons accounted for, according to Philippine National Police officials. The earthquake resulted in 72 deaths, nearly 300 injuries, and affected approximately 171,000 people, displacing around 20,000 individuals who remain in evacuation centers or open areas due to ongoing aftershocks. Over 2,250 police personnel, supported by additional units from neighboring regions and maritime groups, were deployed to assist with security, medical aid, road clearing, and logistics to help restore normalcy. No crimes, including looting or gender-based violence, were reported in the aftermath, allowing authorities to focus fully on relief and rehabilitation efforts. Despite road clearing efforts, some local routes remain damaged, and residents are hesitant to return indoors due to fear of aftershocks. The government maintains a red alert status in Central Visayas to maximize disaster response operations.
