The National Capital Region Police Office (NCRPO) on Friday announced that 21,853 security staff will guard the event in Quezon, Metro Manila – a significant increase from the 15,174 personnel initially promised.

The ramped-up security plan was concluded during the first inter-agency meeting, led by NCRPO regional director Major General Felipe Natividad, in Camp Bagong Diwa, Taguig City on Friday.

The police have announced that a Metro Manila gun ban will be enforced from July 22 to 27 to further secure the event.

Police checkpoints will be deployed on roads leading to the National Assembly to enforce the firearms ban.

Police also reiterated their plea for protesters to hold their mass demonstrations in designated freedom parks during the Sona.

In Quezon City, the only place where groups can conduct their protests without the need to secure a permit is the Quezon City Memorial Circle.
