The Philippine Navy is investigating the death of officer candidate Aldwayne Dulnuan, who dies after collapsing during training in Zambales. Dulnuan passes away on July 22 after he collapses while undergoing training at the Naval Education, Training and Doctrine Command (NETDC) in San Antonio, Zambales (Naval Station Leovigildo Gantioqui, according to some reports). He is taken to multiple medical facilities for treatment but dies later while being treated. In response to growing calls for accountability, the Navy holds a press conference in Manila and later announces it has started a probe. It says there is, so far, no indication of foul play. Dulnuan’s family and his community seek clear answers about the circumstances of his death, and a local official, the mayor of Kiangan in Ifugao, urges a thorough and transparent investigation. GMA News Online reports the family believes the death is due to heatstroke, while the Navy’s preliminary position focuses on conducting an investigation and addressing the incident through official briefings.
