Singapore Red Cross pledges P2.9M for Carina relief
Singapore Red Cross pledged $50,000 or around P2.9 million to support the Philippine Red Cross in its relief and assistance operations for communities affected by the southwest monsoon and Typhoon Carina.
The intensified rainfall, floods, and landslides caused by the tropical cyclone have had a devastating impact on families and communities.
Philippine Red Cross has deployed its Emergency Response Unit for search and rescue missions in flooded areas and mobilized essential vehicles and assets to assist residents.
The habagat, enhanced by Typhoon Carina, has resulted in at least 21 deaths, according to the Philippine National Police.
Carina intensified the habagat, bringing relentless rains that triggered floods and landslides in parts of Luzon.
Rescuers were deployed across Metro Manila to evacuate people from low-lying homes after downpours turned streets into rivers, trapping vehicles.
