Several weekends ago, I captured a series of images depicting the town of Aparri. I have since learned that many structures featured in my footage have suffered significant damage. Aparri and numerous parts of Northern Luzon have recently been declared a state of calamity due to the extensive destruction inflicted by Super Typhoon #MarcePH and Tropical Storm #OfelPH.
According to reports from the Municipal Social Welfare and Development Office (MSWD), the repercussions of these natural disasters are staggering. More than 20,000 families, representing over 78,000 individuals, have been adversely affected in #Aparri alone. This situation underscores the urgent need for support and recovery efforts to assist those who have been displaced and to help rebuild the community that has endured such overwhelming challenges.
