Acting Department of Transportation (DOTr) Secretary Giovanni Lopez announces that General Santos Airport (GenSan Airport) reopens for disaster response following a magnitude 7.8 earthquake that hits parts of Mindanao on Monday. The airport allows military, humanitarian, government, and cargo flights to operate to support response efforts. Commercial flights remain suspended while authorities assess damage and complete repairs. Lopez says the DOTr is targeting the resumption of commercial operations within a week and previously indicated the suspension would last until Thursday, June 11. He also orders the accelerated repair of the passenger terminal building and directs the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines and airport personnel to ensure the structural integrity of transportation hubs in the affected areas. The reopening is intended to keep logistics moving for relief and government operations while commercial services are restored only after safety checks and repair work are completed.
