All families in Davao City who evacuated due to the combined effects of the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) and easterlies, which caused widespread flooding in the city, have already left the evacuation centers, according to the Office of Civil Defense (OCD) on Wednesday.
“The evacuees have returned to their homes. There are no longer ECs (evacuation centers) and evacuees,” Diego Agustin Mariano, deputy spokesperson of OCD, told reporters via Viber in mixed English and Filipino.
In an earlier situational report released Tuesday at 5:00 pm, 347 families, or 1,453 individuals, all from Davao City, were reported to have sheltered in 16 ECs throughout the city.
