The Isabela-based 5th Infantry has placed all its disaster
response task units (DRTUs) in "red alert" as Typhoon
"Lando" continues to threaten a huge portion of Northern and Central Luzon Saturday.
Major Gen. Lysander Suerte, 5th Infantry Division commander,
said their "red alert" status started 5 p.m. Friday.
He added that all DRTUs and other units are instructed to
coordinate with local government units in their respective areas-of-operations.
"We are (now) in standby and ready to be deployed to
provide humanitarian assistance and disaster response," Suerte stressed.
