Philippines eradication campaigns (2026)
More actions
Philippines eradication campaigns (2026) is the hub page tracking cannabis eradication operations in the Philippines during the 2026 calendar year. The bulk of operations are conducted by the Philippine National Police (PNP) and allied agencies, with most reported activity concentrated in the Cordillera Administrative Region (CAR), particularly Benguet and Kalinga provinces.
Each reported operation is logged as a News Item and linked to this hub via the part_of_campaign field. Yearly hubs are intended to provide a rolling view of enforcement pressure on Philippine landrace cultivation; regional or campaign-specific pages will be spun off when material warrants.
