Siargao Island residents appeal for clean water, food after Odette’s wrath


 

 

Residents of Siargao Island are appealing for help over a week after Typhoon Odette severely pummeled the area.

The typhoon left a trail of destroyed infrastructures, houses, and fallen trees in General Luna and Dapa on Siargao Island.

According to a tweet by GMA News’ Raffy Tima, displaced residents are asking for clean water, food, and shelter materials as they try to rebuild their homes.

Meanwhile, kids in Burgos town look out at the severely damaged seawall after huge waves swept several houses.

Odette exited the Philippine area of responsibility last Saturday afternoon, after leaving several areas in devastation. — Richa Noriega/RSJ, GMA News
