A recent earthquake in the Philippines caused significant destruction, including the collapse of Roldan Dante's home in Glan, Sarangani province, leading to the disappearance of his wife and two children. The government provided cash aid to affected families, but the country remains unprepared for a larger seismic event.

A 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck southern Philippines, causing landslides, at least 47 deaths, and displacing over 45,000 people. Glan Mayor Victor James Yap requested helicopter airlifts to deliver food to isolated villages, as power and access remain disrupted.
