00:00Before leaving the country, the super typhoon Pepito hit the major part of Luzon.
00:09Aside from the heavy rain, wind, and thunderstorms, it also caused landslides.
00:15In Nueva Vizcaya, seven people were born in Lima after their house was hit by landslides.
00:21Witness, James Agustiz.
00:23Almost an entire house in Valera Aurora was hit by the strong winds of yesterday.
00:39Along with the strong winds, the heavy rain caused landslides in the city of Dipakulao.
00:43The landslides were also felt in the city of Dipakulao, where the second landslide occurred yesterday.
00:59Some places in Nueva Ecija were also affected.
01:02The wind moved this ride to a pier in Bungabut, as well as tents in the vicinity of Tinangay.
01:09The winds and rains in Cabanatuan City were felt until last night.
01:13Earlier this morning, some residents were still trying to escape because some places were flooded.
01:23The residents' house was flooded.
01:25A wide-angle drone video was captured earlier this morning.
01:28Seventeen barangays were affected, including the barangay of Rizdaliz and Isla.
01:35The water inside the house has already crossed the town.
01:37It's really hard, sir.
01:40It's a sacrifice.
01:42And because the flood reached its peak, some people used boats.
01:45This is the part of the bridge that is still submerged in the flood because of the rising sand.
01:50The water has already reached its peak here.
01:54But when you pass through here, especially the entrances to the houses, the flood is higher.
02:00Samira's mother was taken by rescuers through the windows of her house.
02:04I can't do anything. I can't get out.
02:06From upstream, the volume of water will be saved for three to six hours for the water level to go down.
02:15In Nueva Vizcaya, some trees were hit by the wind.
02:18Some animals were not saved.
02:21Because of the heavy rain, there was a landslide in the town of Ambagyo.
02:25Seven people were on their way home.
02:28According to the PDRMO, a family of eight people were evacuated and several minorities.
02:34Because the heavy rain fell, the land became saturated.
02:43Earlier this morning, there was also a landslide on Kenon Road.
02:46That's why the land and stones fell on the road.
02:51Yesterday, the Kenon Road was closed to motorists.
02:54That's why no one was injured in the landslide.
02:56There is an ongoing tunnel to totally prevent the rockfall.
03:04There is already one.
03:07And another is ongoing in the lower portion.
03:13There was almost zero visibility in Baguio City because of the heavy rain.
03:18The authorities in Lagun City Camp were on guard in case of a landslide.
03:22That's why the residents who live nearby were alerted.
03:26I'm nervous, ma'am.
03:28What did you pray for last night?
03:30Of course, the landslide will stop.
03:33We can go home.
03:35Yesterday, some tourist spots in Baguio were closed.
03:37But it was reopened today.
03:39The rain poured down and caused the water to run out.
03:41Many houses were flooded in Isabela.
03:43The houses that can be seen were almost completely submerged.
03:46It's possible that the landslide was more severe than that of Sierra Madre.
03:50It's helpful.
03:52Another factor is that the moisture enhanced by the landslide
04:04will be reduced if we compare it while it's at sea.
04:08According to the Office of Civil Defense,
04:10Black Hawk Helicopters flew to the Philippine Air Force
04:14to examine the location of the landslide and provide relief operations.
04:18For JEMA Integrated News,
04:20I'm James Agustin, your witness.
