00:16Just this Saturday,

00:18a group of overseas Filipino workers from Lebanon

00:21returned to the Philippines via Saudi Arabian Airlines' SV862.

00:25And just yesterday,

00:27eight more Filipinos voluntarily repatriated came to the country.

00:31They are our fellow Filipinos who were trapped in the chaos between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon.

00:36Based on the latest report of the Department of Migrant Workers,

00:39450 OFWs from Lebanon have returned to the Philippines.

00:44Since President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. ordered the voluntary repatriation in Lebanon,

00:50a year has already passed.

00:52As of now, we have 266.

00:56266 in our booked commercial flights.

01:02Okay.

01:04And then,

01:06there are additional around,

01:12in our count, more or less,

01:14around 300.

01:16We still need to process 300 in Lebanese immigration.

01:26So 300 plus 266, that leaves us with around 566.

01:31We are sure that they are interested in moving from Lebanon.

01:35Of course, this is a fluid count.

01:37This evening, it will increase.

01:38Dependent upon how the DFA sees the political and security situation on the ground.

01:43So right now, it's alerted.

01:45Meaning, voluntary repatriation and total ban on departure.

01:49No OFWs are being processed in Lebanon.

01:52According to the DMW's conversation with Ambassador to Lebanon Raewon Balatbat,

01:56only 10 OFWs are in the area,

01:59severely affected by the war in southern Lebanon.

02:02We have 186 shelters,

02:05186 OFWs,

02:07and some overseas Filipinos,

02:12the Lebanese married ones also,

02:14about 15 of them in the shelter.

02:17But most of the 186 are OFWs.

02:20So, we have 3 shelters.

02:22And they are in good condition right now.

02:26So, 186 in our shelters.

02:27So, southern Lebanon,

02:29of course, the political security situation,

02:32we are dependent on the DFA,

02:34but we are still praying that the situation will improve.

02:39We know that there are still dangers.

02:41Almost 40 Filipinos will be returning to the country starting later tonight.

02:46Repatriated OFWs will receive P75,000 financial allowance from the DMW Action Fund,

02:54P70,000 in livelihood assistance from DSWD,
