⁨📷⁩ ⁨RFJTEX 2026: READY, INTEGRATED, AND PREPARED TO SERVE 🇵🇭

The Southern Luzon Command conducts the 3rd iteration of the Reserve Force Joint Training Exercise (RFJTEX) 2026 from 14–16 August 2026 at Camp Guillermo Nakar, Lucena City, involving CALABARZON-based Ready Reserve Units (RRUs), Affiliated Reserve Units (ARUs), and Regular Forces.

Anchored on External Security Operations with Integrated Medical Response, the exercise aims to strengthen the readiness, interoperability, and seamless integration of the AFP Reserve Force with the Regular Force under the AFP Total Force Concept.

The exercise is conducted in four phases, with Phase I and Phase II already successfully completed:

🔹 PHASE I – CALL-UP/ASSEMBLY | COMPLETED ✅
Participants were called up and assembled, followed by the Opening Ceremony, exercise briefing and orientation, mobilization simulation, and lectures on AFP Core Values, External Security Operations, and disaster response planning.

🔹 PHASE II – INTEGRATION | COMPLETED ✅
Reservist Units were integrated with Regular Forces through Staff Exercise (STAFFEX), Subject Matter Expert Exchange (SMEE), and joint/combined operations drills, including surface operations, aerodrome operations, and emergency medical response and evacuation.

🔹 PHASE III – EXECUTION/DEPLOYMENT | NEXT PHASE
The exercise proceeds to the Field Training Exercise (FTX) focusing on External Security Operations with Integrated Medical Response, testing the participants’ ability to operate effectively in complex operational environments while managing competing priorities and maintaining operational tempo.

🔹 PHASE IV – DEMOBILIZATION | TO FOLLOW
The final phase will involve the reorganization and consolidation of participants, After Exercise Review, simulation of Reservist Units’ demobilization with Reservist Administrators, and the Closing Ceremony.

With the successful completion of the first two phases, RFJTEX 2026 moves forward to the ex*****on and demobilization phases—further strengthening the capability of the Regular and Reserve Forces to operate as one integrated, responsive, and ready force during conflict, crises, and national emergencies.

AYUNGIN RESUPPLY: SUPPORT TO OUR PERSONNEL IS A DUTY, NOT A CONCESSION. 🇵🇭

Supporting our Filipino personnel at Ayungin Shoal is a lawful and continuing responsibility. Resupply missions ensure that our personnel have the food, water, medicine, and essential supplies they need to remain safe and mission-ready.

As we navigate diplomatic arrangements, the principles remain clear: protect our personnel, uphold our rights, safeguard operational security, and preserve our freedom of action.

Diplomacy may help manage risks, but it must never diminish our lawful rights or our duty to support Filipinos serving at sea.

We stand on law. We support our personnel. We serve the nation.

PARTNERSHIPS STRENGTHEN PHILIPPINE CAPACITY 🇵🇭

Partnerships do not diminish sovereignty—they strengthen Filipino capacity to protect it.

From Japan–Philippine Coast Guard cooperation and AFP modernization to the Philippine Navy’s participation in RIMPAC 2026 and joint interoperability activities, practical cooperation builds stronger training, maritime safety, communications, readiness, and humanitarian response capabilities.

The Philippines makes its own sovereign choices. Our partners help build our capacity; Filipinos remain in charge of protecting Philippine interests.

Philippine-led. Partner-enabled. Future-ready.

DND Press Release
August 13, 2026
Releasing Authority: Asec. Arsenio R. Andolong

STATEMENT

The law enforcement efforts against the Chinese nationals that are referred to in a recent report were done on the basis of search warrants issued by the proper courts. The individuals arrested by the authorities were the principals of these illegal enterprises. Chinese authorities stress the issue of the work visas and passports of these individuals while refusing to address the illegal activities that they perpetuated. This is an admission by them that indeed the acts of these individuals were illegal under Philippine law.

Filipinos in China have neither the intent nor the capacity to commit violations of Chinese law much less in the scale perpetuated by Chinese nationals here. The fact that the Chinese government is actively covering up for these individuals is the best evidence of their complicity in the nefarious acts of these people.

The action against 100 Filipinos is plain and simple extortion and blackmail. We strongly condemn both the attempt by China to interfere in our law enforcement processes and the blatant blackmail against Filipinos.

I reiterate that if these Chinese nationals were not involved in defrauding the Filipino people, which is now amplified by the cover up done by Chinese authorities, then they will be treated in the same way as other law abiding foreigners residing in the Philippines.
