00:00The wind signal number four is now high in some places in Cagayan because of the typhoon Ophel.
00:06Let's update the situation there on our first live news,
00:09with Jasmine Gabriel Galvan of GMA Regional TV.
00:12Jasmine.
00:15Ivan, at this time, the effect of the typhoon Ophel is felt here in the town of Santa Ana, in the province of Cagayan.
00:22The wind is strong and the waves are also high in Baybayin.
00:27It is said that the windmills in the roof of Ms. Mayet's house were damaged by the typhoon
00:33after the typhoon Marce hit the province of Palawig, Santa Ana, Cagayan.
00:39Almost four layers of sand fell on their house because of the typhoon Marce.
00:45The inside of the house was also hit by sand.
00:48And now there is a typhoon Ophel.
00:50They are temporarily staying in the house of her husband.
00:54I don't know what to do because our house hasn't been repaired yet and there is another typhoon coming.
01:02Ms. Sabina used a big rope to tie the roof and other parts of the house.
01:07When the typhoon Marce hit, the neighboring building was flooded with scraps.
01:13The windmills are moving because the wind is really strong here.
01:18The residents of Cagayan are preparing for the possible effects of the typhoon Ophel.
01:22In Garau City, the evacuees are not allowed to return to their homes
01:27so that they can be safe from the typhoon Ophel in the province.
01:31They are pitiful.
01:33They are tired of carrying things.
01:38So we decided not to let them go.
01:42The authorities in the province of Cagayan remain alert.
01:45Rescuers in different parts of the province remain in position.
01:50Residents in Coastal Barangay are being careful in the face of the storm surge.
01:54Pre-emptive evacuation in the province was also ordered yesterday.
02:02Ivan, the authorities in Coastal Barangay here in the town of Santa Ana are currently in a hurry
02:08to evacuate the residents who left this morning.
02:11Ivana?
02:12Jasmine, the typhoons that hit Cagayan followed one another.
02:17How is the condition of the people in the evacuation center?
02:21Many of them are sick.
02:23Even you, I noticed that your voice is hoarse.
02:30You know Ivan, in our questions to the residents,
02:33because within two weeks, they returned to the evacuation center almost three times,
02:39we can feel their fatigue.
02:41Actually, some of them are saying that they are doing it over and over again,
02:45going to the evacuation center, going home, and going back to the evacuation center.
02:51Their condition is fine because the local government units and the DSWD continue to provide food packs.
02:59But for now, Ivan, what they want is to be given hot meals,
03:04especially when they are inside the evacuation center,
03:07to be given hot meals because cooking inside the evacuation center is difficult.
03:12There are also people who are sick, Ivan.
03:14It's a simple meal, but there are health personnel standing by inside the evacuation center.
03:20So there is a rush to look at the residents who are sick,
03:25to return to the evacuation center because of the next typhoons, Ivana.
03:31Be careful and hold on, Cagayan.
03:33Thank you very much, Jasmine Gabriel Galvan.
