Recently, the unit was directly affected by the storm with heavy to very heavy rains that lasted for a long time, causing localized flooding in some areas around the warehouse and sub-warehouses. The road to the warehouse command post was deeply flooded, making travel difficult; some traffic routes in the area were temporarily cut off, affecting the mobilization of forces and vehicles to carry out the mission.
