00:41 According to the Cagayan Provincial Information Office,
00:44 some of the injured were minors
00:46 after their house's wall collapsed.
00:49 According to PBOX, the earthquake was caused by an offshore active fault
00:53 that hit the epicenter near Dalupiri Island, Calayan, which is 41 kilometers below.
00:58 Earlier this morning,
00:59 aftershocks were reported with a magnitude 1.5 to 3.7.
01:05 In Dalupiri Island, Calayan,
01:08 there are two barangays that were hit.
01:11 There are houses that had cracks.
01:15 This is in Barangay Centro 2 and Cabudadan.
01:20 The maximum intensity was 5.
01:25 The intensity 5 is considered strong.
01:27 And when it's intensity 5,
01:29 it's generally felt by most people indoors and outdoors.
01:33 If you sleep, you can wake up.
01:37 Governor Manuel Mamba also ordered all MDROs in the province
01:42 to investigate the houses and other structures.

01:47 on the most affected by the earthquake.

01:53 PBOX reminds the public not to ignore the earthquakes.
01:58 We don't take selfies, post on Facebook,
02:01 or smile while we're evacuating.
02:03 Because earthquakes are random events.
02:06 We don't know when it will happen.
02:08 It can happen in the morning or in the evening.
02:11 If we constantly participate in these earthquake drills
02:15 and if we take these earthquake drills seriously,
02:18 it will build muscle memory.
02:20 We know what to do if there's an earthquake.
02:25 According to PBOX, the National Government has plans
02:28 to ensure the preparedness in case an earthquake occurs.
