Philippines NOW! Devastation in Mako: Philippines Landslide Tragedy Unfolds
On February 6, 2024, around 19:40 local time in the municipality of Mako, Davao de Oro province in the Philippines, a massive landslide occurred. A part of the slope collapsed, covering two buses and several houses.
The incident happened near a mining facility that operates 24/7 in three shifts. Among the affected were several workers returning home on the two buses.
According to the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council, the cause of the tragedy was heavy rains in the Mindanao region for several days.
In the three districts of the Mako municipality affected by the landslide, 430 families or approximately 1590 people resided. The affected individuals were relocated to five evacuation centers. 62 households were reported as completely destroyed.
The search for the affected has been ongoing for the third day, but is complicated by the extensive area covered by tons of soil and rocks.
By Friday, February 9, the death toll from the landslide reached 27 people, with 89 still missing.
In an updated statement, the municipal government of Mako reported that 32 people were rescued from the debris. Rescuers found a young girl after losing hope of finding survivors, and the rescue of a child on Friday, almost 60 hours into the search, was called a "miracle."
The global climate situation is rapidly deteriorating, and by the end of 2024, it will become catastrophic. These negative changes are associated with cyclic processes on the planet occurring once every 12,000 years. The year 2024 marks the beginning of such a cycle for Earth and the entire Solar System.
