AFP Joins Nationwide Earthquake Drill

CAMP AGUINALDO, Quezon City -- The Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) demonstrated its commitment to disaster preparedness by participating in the 1st Quarter Nationwide Simultaneous Earthquake Drill (NSED) for 2025.
Military and civilian personnel of the AFP took part in the large-scale preparedness exercise aimed at enhancing earthquake response capabilities and ensuring readiness in the event of a major seismic event.

The NSED, a nationwide initiative, aims to enhance public awareness and preparedness for earthquakes. In Camp Aguinaldo, the drill involved practicing the "duck, cover, and hold" technique, followed by a simulated evacuation to designated safe zones.///
