00:00Another Filipino ship with a Filipino crew attacked the Red Sea.
00:05According to one of the Filipino seamen, the ship was hit by a bullet and hit by a missile.
00:12Witness, Marisol Abduraman.
00:18More than 10 months after the war broke out in Gaza,
00:21the airstrikes are still not over.
00:24Yesterday, in a villa blown up in Gaza City.
00:28Another airstrike hit a school and a house.
00:32According to Palestinian health officials,
00:3450 Israeli airstrikes were in the past 24 hours
00:39in the middle of Sigalot, which is located on the other side of the Middle East.
00:46One of the Palestinian sympathizers, the Hoodie group in Yemen,
00:50since November, attacked ships in the Red Sea.
00:55This group believed that behind the new attack on ships in the Red Sea,
01:00is Mount Sinyon, where 23 Filipinos were on board.
01:05One of the Filipino seamen, Jason Yee,
01:07was able to get a video of the bullet hit by the ship.
01:10We were scared, it came.
01:13We were really hit by a missile.
01:15They were flying from Iraq to Greece to hear the gunfire.
01:19Our armed guard showed the gun.
01:23We were hit.
01:24We were hit by a bullet.
01:26The gun lasted for 20 minutes.
01:28We were hit hard, ma'am.
01:30Our machine was hit, it was pierced.
01:32We were hiding.
01:33Missile, missile.
01:34We were hit near the machine.
01:37The side of the ship.
01:38We were hit hard.
01:40We were hit hard.
01:41In fear, they ran and hid in a corner.
01:45We were hiding.
01:46Ah, that's the safest area.
01:48How many times have you been hit, sir?
01:50We were hit first.
01:52We were hit hard.
01:54We were hit hard.
01:55Then they stopped us.
01:56His teammates tried to hit the machine,
01:59but they were hit hard.
02:00The problem is, when we ran,
02:03we were hit hard.
02:05We were hit hard.
02:06The ship was hit three times,
02:08until the water entered the ship.
02:10That's why I was able to talk to Mr. Yee last night.
02:12He called us again and again.
02:15He was the one who helped us.
02:17We were at risk.
02:18That's what we needed.
02:19Until 3 p.m. that day,
02:21there was still no rescue.
02:23I talked to President Marcos.
02:26I hope the Filipinos will help us
02:28so that we can go home to our families.
02:31It was 11.20 a.m. here in the Philippines.
02:34Yee said that the rescue has arrived.
02:37This afternoon,
02:38the Department of Migrant Workers reported
02:41that the Filipino seafarers were rescued.
02:43All 23 seafarers are safe and sound.
02:47We're requesting that they may be rescued.
02:50The mining agency that has Yee in their hands
02:53said that the family of the seafarers
02:55was very worried.
02:58Some of them are in Taranta,
03:00that's their family.
03:01Some of them are beginners.
03:03Some of them go down there.
03:04But they know the risks.
03:05Yes, they know.
03:07Because we're already briefing them here.
03:09Even if they just cross a few hours,
03:12or a few days,
03:14their salary is five days.
03:16That's their basic salary.
03:17For now,
03:18the HOTI group has no statement
03:20that they promised to attack.
03:22The authorities did not give details
03:24regarding the rescue operation
03:26to the said crew.
03:27What's more important for now
03:29is that their safety is guaranteed.
03:31It's up to them if they will go home to their country.
03:34But the DMW urged them to go home first
03:37after their experience.
03:39For GMA Integrated News,
03:42Marisol Abdurrahman is your witness.
