Marcos orders use EDCA sites to airlift relief goods to 'Kristine'-stricken areas

President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. says on Oct. 23, 2024 that the government will be tapping the Enhanced Defense Cooperation Agreement (EDCA) sites to airlift relief goods, equipment and personnel needed for relief and rescue operations in areas affected by Severe Tropical Storm "Kristine." On former vice president Leni Robredo's call for help, Marcos says rescue boats and aid will be sent to Naga City and the broader Bicol area 'as soon as we can get in.'
