However, the relentless strength of the winds over the weekend caused severe damage to the aircraft.

Governor Cayco also reported that Typhoon Julian battered the province on Sunday night, prompting the evacuation of numerous residents.

Power outages have been ongoing since Sunday evening due to damaged power lines, and several homes have sustained damage as well.

Despite the destruction, Governor Cayco assured the public that family food packs and other forms of assistance are ready for distribution to affected residents.
