Statement of Presidential Communications Secretary and CORDS for Northern Mindanao (CORDS X) Martin Andanar on PAF helicopter crash in Bukidnon

We are saddened by the helicopter crash involving our Philippine Air Force personnel while resupplying troops to counteract communist rebels in Bukidnon yesterday, January 16, 2021.

With this, we extend our deepest sympathies and condolences to the family and loved ones of our fallen heroes.

Their stark bravery, courage, and patriotism never waived until their last hours while serving our beloved country.

May their love for our country inspire many soldiers and Filipinos to uphold peace among each other to attain development and security while respecting differences.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to their families in this time of grief.
