TYPHOON OMPONG RECOVERY OPERATION
Narrative
On 15 September 2018, Typhoon Ompong (known internationally as
Mangkhut) hit the northern part of the Philippines, bringing with
it flash floods, storm surges and landslides. The typhoon displaced
over 270,000 people in Regions I, II, III, Cordillera
Administrative Region (CAR), and National Capital Region. As of
this update, 90% of the population who were displaced have now
returned to their homes. Eight provincial government areas and
seven cities/municipalities have been placed under a state of
calamity.
Shelter damage mainly due to the strong winds was reported by the
different provinces. Most of the houses in the upland communities
are built from light materials and were not strong enough to
withstand the strong winds. Those whose houses were damaged have
limited means to immediately restore their shelters.
The largely farming population of the region are severely affected
due to failure of harvest, which is their main source of food and
livelihood. The Habagat-induced rains that lasted for about 2
months before Typhoon Ompong arrived already caused great losses
to farmers.
the IFRC was a transformative year, bringing a far deeper global
and local commitment to disaster risk reduction efforts.
The IFRC to better focus our efforts towards attaining lasting
outcomes within eight thematic areas – disaster risk reduction,
shelter, livelihoods, health, water and sanitation, culture of
non- violence and peace, social inclusion, and migration.
