|October 21, 2025
Seven people were confirmed dead while two others remained missing in the aftermath of Tropical Storm Ramil, according to the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC).
The storm affected around 173,000 people, with 6,199 taking temporary shelter in other locations.
The NDRRMC said 2,260 families were staying in 166 evacuation centers.
In its latest report, the NDRRMC said one person from Calabarzon was injured.
At least 58 seaports across affected areas remained nonoperational.
Five of the fatalities were recorded in Calabarzon, while the two other fatalities and two missing were from Western Visayas.
To assist those affected by the storm, the Department of Social Welfare and Development said it has released a total of P5.4 million in humanitarian assistance to individuals and families affected by Ramil, which caused flooding in parts of Eastern and Western Visayas and nearby provinces.
The agency reported that the largest share of assistance went to Western Visayas at over P3 million worth of food and non-food items, followed by Central Luzon with P1.1 million, and the Bicol Region with over P1 million in aid.
