In its report, the NDRRMC also said 1,000 families were affected and are temporarily staying at the Quezon Elementary School.
The NDRRMC said the fire started at 8:12 p.m. Friday at Isla Verde Barangay 23-C Boulevard.
The fire lasted five hours and affected two other villages – barangays 22-C and 21-C – before it was put out.
However, the NDRRMC also noted no one was initially reported killed or injured in the fire. — Joel Locsin/JDS, GMA News
