00:00 Some residents were injured after a fire broke out and an explosion in the construction of a gun and bullet in Marikina.
00:07 At the end of February, the number of incidents of fire in the country reached almost 3,000 this year.
00:14 Let's see.
00:15 A man was hit by a fire in Fortune, Marikina earlier.
00:21 The fire suddenly broke out there, followed by a strong explosion.
00:27 Back!
00:28 They were in a runaway in a bigger fire in Armscor Global Defense Incorporated,
00:37 which is a gun and bullet factory.
00:39 A strong smoke was also seen and a fire was ignited from their house nearby.
00:46 Strong!
00:48 Oh my!
00:53 The fire was also seen in the area where the strong smoke was spread.
00:57 According to Superintendent Nestor Gorio, a paramarshal of Marikina,
01:01 the fire started at around 4 p.m. in the Pauzer Depot, where the gunpowder was fired.
01:06 The fire was first alerted before it became red.
01:09 No one was injured or injured in the fire, according to the DFP and PNP.
01:14 But in the news of Jimmy Integrated News in Champaca Street in Naturan, Barangay,
01:18 some said they were also injured in the fire.
01:21 It was also seen in the area of debris that according to the residents,
01:24 the gunpowder was embedded and it reached their house.
01:28 This is the one that splashed.
01:30 Then the wood, the one that was thrown here, the burnt ones.
01:36 There were also some injured residents.
01:38 I fell down there because I was hit.
01:42 My back was broken.
01:44 When I crossed over, they said I was lost.
01:50 In the video captured by the residents,
01:52 they saw that the sky turned yellow due to the high fire.
01:55 They ran away in fear that their houses might be damaged.
01:59 The first thing that was burned was the house was open for investigation.
02:03 We do have cameras and security here.
02:06 We've given everybody full access to be able to investigate this matter
02:12 and see the root cause of the problem.
02:14 If anybody's injured or any house is damaged or anything like that,
02:17 Arms Corps will be taking care of it 100 percent.
02:20 But as far as I know right now, none of that's necessary.
02:24 According to Arms Corps,
02:25 no one was injured in the main facilities except the bunker that was burned.
02:29 That's why they will continue manufacturing their plant tonight.
02:33 More than four houses were burned in General Santos City this morning.
02:39 According to the investigation, the fire was intended.
02:41 The suspect is a resident there who was also caught.
02:44 The criminal suspect was also caught.
02:47 Five classrooms were burned in Molaves and Buangadal Sur.
02:50 The fire started in the Computer Laboratory of the School, according to the BFP.
02:54 Seven houses in Batayan Island were also burned in Cebu yesterday.
02:58 Before the Fire Prevention Month started,
03:01 the number of fire incidents in the country increased.
03:04 According to the latest BFP report,
03:06 the number of fire incidents increased by almost 25 percent from January
03:09 until the end of February this year compared to the same period of 2023.
03:14 But the number of incidents reported in Metro Manila
03:17 decreased by more than half compared to the previous year.
