Landslide blocks Jagna mountain road 


A landslide toppling down huge forest trees rendered a town secondary access road impassable here as rains continue to pour in the last 48 hours.

The landslide, caused by over saturation of the soil happened at Sitio Mang-og, Purok 7 barangay Tubod Monte in Jagna.
  
Two huge Hanagdong trees felled by the landslide blocked the access road cut-ff the access road.
  
No report of damage to lives and property is reported however.
  
The road connects Jagna to Sierra Bullones town and traverses another landslide critical area of Barangay Mayana.
  
Jagma Municipal Disaster and Risk Reduction Management Council has reportedly left to the affected area for road clearing operations, reports Jagna Police Chief SPO4 Bayron.
