145 people evacuated in Occidental Mindoro town due to habagat rains

In Sablayan, Occidental Mindoro, at least 145 people from 41 families were evacuated due to heavy rains caused by the enhanced southwest monsoon (habagat). The Municipal Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office (MDRRMO) reported that evacuees were taken to temporary shelters in village evacuation centers after preemptive evacuations in several barangays. As of 7 a.m., the figure was recorded, but more evacuations might occur if heavy rains continue, particularly in flood-prone Barangay Claudio Salgado. The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) issued a red rainfall warning for the area, indicating a threat of flooding and landslides. Authorities remain on high alert and are working with various government agencies to manage the situation.
