00:00At this point, let's find out the situation in Cagayan, which is currently being affected by the typhoon León.

00:07This is Benji Durango's live report.

00:12Audrey, this is the latest update.

00:14The number of affected barangays or evacuees is increasing

00:19because of the flooding of their rivers and storm surge here in Santa Ana, Cagayan.

00:25Signal number 3 now in Santa Ana, Cagayan,

00:31that's why the super typhoon León is rapidly approaching here.

00:33Even though it's far from the landmass,

00:35the storm surge and rain are still strong in Santa Ana.

00:38According to MSWD, this morning,

00:40several barangays were evacuated by their residents in the coastal area.

00:44Most of them are in Barangay Palawig.

00:46So this is the situation in the coastal area of Barangay Palawig.

00:51The waves are very strong.

00:53As you can see, the storm surge and storm surge are strong.

01:00It's very painful.

01:02On my right, these are the residents of the coastal area.

01:07Most of them have gone to the evacuation center.

01:11The problem is, the river there,

01:14that's the river of Palawig, Palawig River,

01:18now, its water level is above normal level.

01:23So there's a possibility that this river will overflow

01:27and cause flooding here in the large area of their barangay.

01:31But while we were in Dalampasigan,

01:33the wind was very strong.

01:35It was hard for us to stand, so we immediately left Dalampasigan.

01:38So we were led here by the Gabor family.

01:41This is our evacuation.

01:44But actually, we can't get out.

01:46It's hard to get out because it's very unsafe.

01:50So when they saw us, they told us to get inside to be safe.

01:54This is their family.

01:56Thank you very much.

01:59Even though it's made of stone and steel,

02:01the water still flowed from the roof because of the strong wind.

02:04This is dripping. What happened?

02:06Maybe, sir, through the iron and the walling,

02:11the water is coming in.

02:14But this is the safest place for us to cover and report.

02:18This is safe because when we did this,

02:21I put steel and cables.

02:24But they still can't avoid the fear of the strongest storm they've experienced this year.

02:29How are you? How do you feel about the wind?

02:32It's so scary.

02:34The wind is 230 km per hour.

02:36They're lucky because they live in a strong house.

02:39But the residents who have a weak house are evacuating.

02:42In the afternoon, the storm was even stronger.

02:46According to the Municipal DRRMO,

02:48in the afternoon, more than 86 families or 284 people evacuated

02:53from the coastal area of Barangay San Vicente.

02:55It was followed by 65 families or 160 people.

03:00Some were evacuated from 10 other barangays,

03:03so more than 12 barangays were affected by the flood and storm surge.

03:07247 families or 754 people were evacuated from Santa Ana.

03:15Audrey, there's no electricity here in Santa Ana.

03:17The operation center only has a generator,

03:20that's why they're continuously operating.

03:22And because there's no electricity, their internet is also affected.

03:26That's why the satellite internet of Pambansan TV

03:30is being used here for continuous communication.

03:33It's very difficult for the whole of Magnamag

03:35because the storm is still ongoing.

03:38It's dark.

03:39Our rescuers will have a hard time

03:41in protecting the barangays affected by the storm.

03:44The target of Santa Ana,

03:46zero casualties in the aftermath of the León storm.

03:50Audrey.

03:51Okay, Benji.

03:52Last week, there was a storm called Christine.

03:55Now, there's a León storm.

03:57Some of our countrymen haven't recovered yet.

04:00The question is,

04:01should the local government continue to provide assistance to our countrymen?

04:09I talked to Audrey.

04:11The CSWD, or the MSWD,

04:14and they're saying that they still have a balance

04:17from the last relief or family food pack that they had,

04:21that they used for Christine.

04:23There's still some left.

04:24This is still not enough for the León storm.

04:27That's why they requested the DSWD Region 2

04:31to increase the supply

04:33and provide enough for the residents affected by the storm.

04:37The disaster office of their municipality said

04:42that the victims of the storm are increasing

04:45so they need to increase the supply

04:47to feed the victims of the León storm.

04:50Audrey.

04:51Okay, let's just pray that the León storm leaves our country quickly.

04:55Take care.

04:56I'm Benji Durango.
