A sudden seismic event sent tremors through Digos City, Philippines, forcing panicked schoolchildren to scramble for safety as the ground shifted beneath their feet. Audio captured in the immediate moments of the quake captures the audible fear of young students, with screams ringing out across school grounds as the shaking intensified. In the wake of the natural disaster, local school authorities have released a statement confirming that despite the widespread alarm among students and staff, no injuries were reported among the school community. Emergency response teams have yet to release full details on the magnitude of the earthquake or any structural damage to the campus, but the quick evacuation protocols put in place by school officials are credited with keeping all children out of harm’s way. The incident comes as the Philippines, which sits along the Pacific Ring of Fire, regularly experiences seismic activity, and schools across the archipelago maintain regular earthquake drills to prepare students for just such events.
