The Isabela-based 5th Infantry Division has placed all its
units on heightened alert in support of President Rodrigo Duterte's declaration
of "state of lawlessness" following Friday's Davao night market
bombing that killed 14 and wounded scores of others.
The 5th Infantry Division covers all of Region 2 and the Cordilleras .
"The focus of the heightened alert is to intensify
information collection and conduct measure in coordination with Philippine
National Police (PNP) to preempt the occurrence of bombing incident," unit
commander Brig. Gen. Paul Atal said in a statement Tuesday.
In spite of the intensified alert, the 5th Infantry Division
commander urged the public to remain calm since the situation in Northern Luzon is very stable.
Atal assures the public that they are closely working with
PNP counterparts to ensure peace and order in the communities.
