Strong water current from the sea damaged boats and other coastal infrastructures at Barangay Sta. Clara in the coastal town of Kalamansig, Sultan Kudarat on 8 June 2026.
A video by Samroud Vlog showed strong water current pushing boats towards the shore, damaging the boats and the infrastructure surrounding the area.
The said current was caused by a powerful 7.8 magnitude earthquake that hit the Mindanao island this morning. The massive offshore tremor struck at a depth of 10 to 35 kilometers near Sarangani province, toppling multiple buildings in General Santos City and triggering regional tsunami warnings.
Kalamansig is a coastal, first-class municipality located in the province of Sultan Kudarat, Philippines. Known for its rich marine sanctuaries and agricultural landscape, the town spans a land area of 699.20 square kilometers along the western coastline of Mindanao.
