MANILA: The Philippine Navy (PN) has deployed its Marine Battalion Landing Team 1 (MBLT-1) in Zamboanga City to boost security in Western Mindanao. The MBLT-1 arrived at the Naval Station Romulo Espaldon in Zamboanga City on Thursday and was welcomed by Naval Forces Western Command (NFWM) head, Rear Adm. Francisco Tagamolila Jr., the PN said in a news release on Friday. The unit will be placed under the operational control of Joint Task Force Zamboanga (JTF-Z). "(Tagamolila) also commended MBLT-1's expertise and capabilities, stating that their presence significantly strengthens JTF-Z's ability to address security challenges in Western Mindanao," the PN said. The MBLT-1 was previously deployed in Tawi-Tawi province, where it played a key role in external defense operations. The team's reassignment to Zamboanga City marks a strategic move to position the unit in response to the region's evolving security needs. Source: Philippines News Agency
