AT LEAST 383 passengers were stranded after 38 scheduled trips from various seaports, mostly in northern Cebu, were cancelled on Tuesday morning, Sept. 7, 2021, because of the inclement weather brought about by typhoon Jolina.

Also on the same day in Daanbantayan town, three fishermen who were first reported missing were rescued by the personnel of the Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) and Daanbantanyan Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office (DRRMO).

Before this happened, two fishermen had been rescued Monday night, Sept. 6.

The typhoon also brought in heavy rains, causing flooding, soil erosion and destruction of crops in different parts of Cebu Province.
