A woman searches for salvageable items among the rubble of damaged houses in Bacoor, Cavite, the Philippines, on September 12, 2024, following a fire that engulfed at least 800 houses. The fire, which broke out in the early hours of September 10, displaces nearly 1,000 families. Many affected individuals take shelter in nearby evacuation centers where assistance and relief efforts are provided. The fire occurs in a densely populated compound with houses made of iron sheets, wood, and other combustible materials, making emergency operations difficult. This incident is one of the major fire disasters in the Philippines this year. Research and reports by NGOs indicate that strained power lines and combustible materials such as dry leaves, grass, and garbage contribute to the country's susceptibility to fires.
