00:11Stella Desmora in Central Nabalita, live.
00:17Angelique, the situation here in Bagbag Public Cemetery is back to normal.
00:21It's different from the situation earlier when a fire broke out at the boundary of the cemetery.
00:28The firefighters of the Bureau of Fire Protection responded quickly
00:33to the fire here at the boundary of Bagbag Public Cemetery in Novaliches, Quezon City.
00:40Around 9 in the morning, a fire broke out on the second floor of a house here
00:46that quickly spread to other houses.
00:48According to Ms. Saturnina Verasis, the owner of the house where the fire broke out,
00:55there was an electric fan in their house.
00:58At first, she did not notice it, but later, the fire spread to their house.
01:04According to the Chief of Operations of the Quezon City Fire Department,
01:08Fire Chief Inspector Marvin Mari,
01:1030 families were affected by the fire,
01:13but no one was injured or killed.
01:16At 10.17 a.m. earlier, the fire was declared red.
01:20Let's listen to a portion of our interviews.
01:25The electric fan exploded,
01:29but I didn't understand it because it was weak, I thought it wasn't.
01:33Now, my grandchild was silent.
01:38My grandchild said,
01:40Mom, it's on fire, it's on fire, my grandchild said.
01:43What I did, I climbed up here.
01:46I looked, the pump was on fire, half of the pump was on fire.
01:51What I did, I lowered my grandchildren.
01:54This is all I took, my items.
01:57None of our belongings were saved.
02:00Outside the perimeter of the cemetery,
02:03it just so happened that there were firefighters here
02:06who deployed our EMS personnel and our firefighting personnel.
02:11That's why our firefighters responded immediately.
02:14Angelic, let's just show the situation here in Bagbag Public Cemetery,
02:19which is also one of the largest cemeteries in the region.
02:23And here, Angelic, if you can see behind me,
02:26there are people coming here continuously.
02:29Earlier, Angelic, there was almost no one walking here.
02:32But the good news, Angelic,
02:34the authorities continue to monitor,
02:37so the order is maintained,
02:39especially earlier when the fire was affected.
02:43This area is near the cemetery.
02:46Angelic, here in this area, the entrance to the cemetery,
02:50as of now, we can see that our countrymen
02:53are continuously coming here to the cemetery.
02:56As of 12 noon, Angelic,
02:58more than 37,000 people entered the cemetery
03:02and the number is expected to increase later.
03:05Angelic?
03:06Okay, so let's just clarify again,
03:08Angelic?
03:09Okay, so let's just clarify again,
03:11are there mosquitos or mosquitos
03:13in the cemetery that were affected by the fire?
03:19Angelic, according to the firefighters,
03:21the Bureau of Fire Protection,
03:23the mosquitos or mosquitos
03:25that were killed here in Bagbag Public Cemetery
03:28were not affected.
03:30The system, Angelic, is very close,
03:33here in the cemetery,
03:35that is, the so-called apartment
03:37of the mosquitos here,
03:39is just behind the compound
03:41where there was a fire here.
03:43But the good news, Angelic,
03:45no one was hurt or killed
03:47and as of now, the situation here in the cemetery is back to normal.
03:51Angelic?
03:52Okay, thank you very much, Mela Lesmoras.
