Army clearing landslide hit San Isidro-Antequera Road in Bohol

From the Philippine News Agency (Oct 28): Army clearing landslide hit San Isidro-Antequera Road in Bohol

To ensure the safety of relief convoys, the Philippine Army (PA) over the weekend started blasting and clearing landslide-prone areas of the San Isidro-Antequera Road in Bohol.

Operations will continue until Monday.

The blasting aims to clear areas to protect convoys bringing relief goods to quake-hit areas.

Bohol was hit hardest by a 7.2-magnitude earthquake that devastated Central Visayas last Oct. 15.

The National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council said at least 215 had been killed by the quake, with 201 from Bohol alone.
