00:00The Catholic Catholic Church in the Philippines will have a new Cardinal.

00:05He is the Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines President and Vice-Bishop Pablo Virgilio David,

00:11also known as Bishop Ambo.

00:13Pope Francis himself announced this in his weekly noontime prayer in St. Peter's Square in Vatican City.

00:20Bishop Ambo is one of the 21 bishops who were chosen to be installed in a ceremony on December 8, 2024.

00:29He is the 10th bishop in the Philippines who was appointed.

00:33According to the Catholic Church Hierarchy, the Cardinals of St. Paul are the second and will serve as advisors.

00:41The Catholic community and Bishop Ambo's family enjoyed the good news,

00:46such as JMA veteran journalist Cara David, who is proud of her uncle.

00:53Their Certificate of Candidacy for being a Senator in the election of 2025 is still in process.

00:59Among them is Benhur Abalos, who will serve as the DILG Secretary.

01:04As well as Attorney JV Hinlo.

01:07As of 11.30am, five of their COCs have already signed up for being a Senator.

01:13While some partylists have already signed up for their Certificate of Nomination

01:18and Certificate of Acceptance of Nomination or CONCAN.

01:24The list of potential election areas of concern for the election of 2025 has already been submitted to the Commission on Election.

01:30According to Philippine National Police Spokesperson Jean Fajardo,

01:34who is one of the people they are looking for to form the list of political rivalries in the area,

01:38it should be the presence of armed groups.

01:41The list will be validated by the Comelec.

01:44PNP Chief Police General Romel Marbil has ordered to tighten security

01:50after the signing of the Certificate of Candidacy.

01:53They will be more vigilant in areas where there have been incidents of election-related violence.

02:01This is GMA Regional TV News.

02:06Two truck drivers were found dead in a separate area in Negros Occidental.

02:13In General Santos City, a woman was killed after she was hit by a tricycle.

02:19This is the hot news brought to you by Efren Mamac of GMA Regional TV.

02:27A pickup truck passed through a store in General Santos City

02:31on the National Highway along Pagkislap or Spark.

02:36The sidecar of the hit tricycle was damaged.

02:54The woman passenger of the tricycle was found dead on the spot.

02:57The four other passengers were also injured.

03:00According to the Traffic Enforcement Unit of General Santos City,

03:03the tricycle came from the side of the highway when it was hit by a pickup truck.

03:07The driver of the pickup truck was found dead in Pulomoloc South, Cotabato.

03:16The driver is ready to pay the expenses of the victims.

03:19According to the police, the victims have no plan to escape.

03:23But it is possible that the police will continue to cancel the license of the driver of the pickup truck.

03:43The driver of the pickup truck has not yet given his consent.

03:46A tricycle collided with a truck on the side of Davao-Bukidnon Highway in Davao City.

03:53In an investigation by the police, the tricycle entered the lane where the truck was parked.

03:58Due to the force of the collision, the driver of the pickup truck immediately died.

04:03The woman passenger of the pickup truck was also injured and was taken to the hospital.

04:07The police station is now under the custody of the truck driver who did not give his consent.

04:12The two truck drivers of Negros Occidental were found dead in a separate area.

04:18The first was found in Talisay City.

04:21A few hours later, another man's vehicle was found in Lacar Lotus City.

04:42The Lacar Lotus City Police and Talisay City Police immediately took action

04:47and confirmed that the two victims were working together.

04:50According to the investigation, the truck carrying construction supplies was found on the road to Manila.

04:55The two drivers also lost their money.

04:58We already have a portion of interest.

05:02Accordingly, before all of this happened, they were working together.

05:06In fact, they were not that close.

05:11The investigation on the motive of the crime continues.

05:14Efren Mamak of GMA Regional TV is reporting for GMA Integrated News.

05:23The Lapulapu City Sports Commission has been holding a three-year ban on the two basketball teams involved in the ramble here in Cebu.

05:31According to the Lapulapu City Sports Commissioner, Vince Carungay,

05:34the two teams will also be fined P15,000.

05:39The game became heated when the scores of the two teams were tied on September 29.

05:45One of the players was the first to be knocked out of the other team and returned home from the ramble.

05:50The commission has already held the names of the players

05:54and has already talked to their coaches and team owners.

05:59Albuera-Leyte Majority Aspiring Curwin Espinoza is ready to help whoever can help

06:05to reopen the investigation on the death of his father.

06:09At a press conference after the COC called,

06:12Espinoza said that he is calling for the opening of the case to the President, Congress, and even to the International Criminal Court.

06:20Curwin was jailed following the assassination of former President Rodrigo Duterte.

06:26Espinoza is also the father of former Albuera-Leyte Mayor Rolando Espinoza Sr. in the illegal drug trade.

06:31Espinoza was sentenced to death in a shootout in his cell in 2016.

06:38In 2022, Espinoza's younger brother testified against former Justice Secretary and Senator Laila de Lima

06:47regarding the illegal drug trade in the Philippines.

06:50According to Espinoza, he is facing a lot of pressure from the Duterte administration

06:55that's why he was forced to teach everyone including De Lima even if it's not true.

07:01He asked for a pardon from De Lima.

07:04Duterte's camp has yet to comment on Espinoza's statement.

07:09If Congress or anyone helps me to revive this case, I hope they will help me.

07:25I am willing to cooperate to prove the AGK.

07:38A car was spotted circling a playground in Minnesota, USA.

07:43The car was driven by a 10-year-old girl who was injured in the incident.

07:51The girl was arrested for car theft.

07:56She was charged with reckless driving and receiving stolen property.

08:02Meanwhile, let's update on the situation of our countrymen amid tensions in Israel and Lebanon.

08:09Let's talk to DFA Undersecretary Eduardo de Vega.

08:12Good morning and welcome to Balitang Hali. This is Connie Sison, sir.

08:16Good morning Ms. Connie.

08:18How is the situation of our countrymen amid tensions in Israel and Lebanon?

08:24Well, we still have a lot of them.

08:27We have a lot of commercial flights.

08:30More than a hundred people can go home in various flights this month.

08:35Now, what our ambassador is doing is helping the Filipinos.

08:41This is the report that came to me earlier.

08:43There are many Filipinos in the church.

08:47I asked them how they are.

08:50They said they are not afraid.

08:52They are going about their daily activities like this is an ordinary Sunday.

08:56They are used to it.

08:59The reason is that it is good for the Filipinos to relax.

09:05What we see in the international status,

09:09those are specific targets.

09:11The entry of Israeli soldiers or forces in southern Lebanon,

09:18they target Israel and Lebanon.

09:24This group is Israel and Lebanon.

09:27Second, the attacks in Israel.

09:31They have specific targets.

09:33They want to destroy people, maybe the Israelis.

09:38The Filipinos there, 90 percent,

09:42are still not obeying our call for their voluntary repatriation.

09:50However, we are still arranging our staff there,

09:55including the migrant workers, the co-operative workers,

09:58to go home.

10:00The problem is that the government of Lebanon is still functioning.

10:05This is not a war where there is no peace and order.

10:09That is why we are still doing mandatory.

10:12The problem is that those who want to go home,

10:14they have to be documented.

10:16That is why their exit period is long.

10:21Although, because of our repeated visits there,

10:26the Lebanese government promised to release them.

10:31That is why now, there are commercial ties that are being paid.

10:36That is what we are discussing.

10:38And the Department of Budget is testing

10:42if they want to charter a false flag

10:45if they want to have a lot of money.

10:47So right now, there is pending.

10:49How many Filipinos are on the list from Israel and Lebanon

10:55who signified that they want to be repatriated?

10:58Okay. In Lebanon itself,

11:00the number is increasing.

11:03Right now, there are more than 300 who want to go home.

11:07Almost half of them have their exit period.

11:11So, we have 148 registered to go home.

11:1611,000, 10,000 to 11,000 monthly visits to Lebanon.

11:20In Israel, starting last year, many went home.

11:25Around 500-600 went home.

11:28By the way, today is the anniversary of Hamas invasion in Israel.

11:34Yes, that's right.

11:35When Israel entered Gaza,

11:37that's when the whole problem in the Middle East region started.

11:40That's why, as the Secretary-General,

11:44I just want to tell you that

11:46we are worried about Israel and this region.

11:52There are Filipinos who died.

11:54But just like that,

11:56we will also call for all to follow the international law,

12:01proportionality, and not escalate the tensions.

12:05Because we don't want more than 2 million Filipinos on the list.

12:09In Israel, no one wants to go home

12:12even though they know that they are protected by the Israel Iron Dome.

12:18If there is an attempt to attack Israel,

12:22there is a specific military point.

12:25What the Filipinos in Israel are saying,

12:29those who haven't gone home yet,

12:31what are they doing?

12:33It's their home now. They are Filipinos.

12:36But they are used to living in Israel and in Lebanon.

12:40So, that's how it is.

12:42That's the advice of our countrymen.

12:44We understand.

12:46We will not escalate the tensions.

12:50By the way, can I give you the hotline?

12:52Go ahead, sir.

12:53If you want to call.

12:54Okay. Yousef, go ahead.

12:56If you are looking for someone, you can call OWA.

12:58They have a hotline, 1348.

13:01But if you are looking for someone in Lebanon,

13:04or you are listening in Lebanon,

13:06and you want to call the embassy,

13:08you have two phones.

13:10This is from Lebanon.

13:12Call 70858086.

13:18For the embassy.

13:20And for Labor and Tashaid,

13:22he is the one who booked the tickets for OWA.

13:25The one called Mike Edwards.

13:28Alright.

13:2979110729.

13:34Again.

13:3570858086.

13:3979110729.

13:43I will flash it.

13:44I will send it to you now.

13:45Yes, yes.

13:46The advisory of the embassy

13:51so that you can include it in your photo.

13:57Yes.

13:58Yousef, thank you very much for giving us your time.

14:01And of course, we will try to flash it to other newscasts

14:04for our countrymen.

14:06Thank you very much.

14:09That was Undersecretary Eduardo De Vega.

14:16Meanwhile,

14:17the structure when you say tower,

14:21right?

14:22Those are the ones that will rise.

14:23How about the people themselves

14:25becoming towers?

14:26Right?

14:27I don't want to try that.

14:28I might get a bone fracture.

14:30In Tarragona, Spain,

14:32there is a great competition called

14:34Castel's Competition.

14:35That's right.

14:36More than 40 groups will compete

14:40to build the highest and most unique human tower or castel.

14:46Each member will have their own discard

14:48so that it can be done carefully.

14:51But of course,

14:52some of them will be disqualified.

14:55Finally, the group from Villafranca

14:57will be the champion.
