DFA: 236 Pinoys in Caribbean to be evacuated

/ 07:55 AM September 14, 2017

The Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) will charter a plane to fly at least 236 Filipinos out of the hurricane-hit Caribbean islands beginning Monday.

The Filipinos were stranded in the islands when Category 5 Hurricane “Irma” slammed into the popular tourist destination last week.
