Malacanang has extended its condolences to the family of the seven people on board a Philippine air force helicopter that crashed in Bukidnon.

The helicopter that crashed in Impasugong town on Saturday afternoon was carrying supplies for counterinsurgency forces.

“We are saddened by the helicopter crash involving our Philippine Air Force personnel while resupplying troops to counteract communist rebels in Bukidnon yesterday,” Communications Secretary Martin Andanar said.

“With this, we extend our deepest sympathies and condolences to the family and loved ones of our fallen heroes,” added Andanar.

The secretary said the “stark bravery, courage, and patriotism” of the dead troopers “never waived until their last hours while serving our beloved country.”

“May their love for our country inspire many soldiers and Filipinos to uphold peace among each other to attain development and security while respecting differences.

“Our thoughts and prayers go out to their families in this time of grief,” he concluded.
