Transcript

00:00 The damage to two different fires in Cebu City reached 10 million pesos this weekend.

00:07 Jesse Atienza of PTV Cebu was surprised.

00:10 The night was bright in Barangay Careta last Saturday at 9 p.m.

00:19 A fire broke out and the firefighters responded to the fire at the Calapucan site that was raised to the third alarm.

00:26 It was also difficult for the firefighters to fill the fire because the area is narrow and dark.

00:33 According to the latest report from the Department of Social Welfare Services,

00:36 more than 100 households were affected by the fire that burned more than 600 individuals.

00:43 Ms. Teresa's heart aches because she was a housewife for more than four decades.

00:48 Now, she's just a grandmother.

00:50 I'm just a grandmother. I have two children. I'm just a grandmother.

00:56 I'm just a grandmother. I'm just a grandmother.

00:58 I'm just a grandmother. I'm just a grandmother.

01:00 I'm just a grandmother. I'm just a grandmother.

01:02 I'm just a grandmother. I'm just a grandmother.

01:04 I'm just a grandmother. I'm just a grandmother.

01:06 The firefighters were temporarily staying at the evacuation center.

01:10 The DSWS immediately provided food and water.

01:14 Meanwhile, the residents of Basakpardo saved themselves by doing whatever they could.

01:22 They were also victims of a big fire last Saturday night.

01:26 According to the Cebu City Fire Station Office,

01:28 almost 100 households were also affected by the fire that was raised to the third alarm.

01:34 In fact, this area is close to ground zero of the fire that happened in Basakpardo.

01:41 The problem is that the road is too narrow to enter here.

01:45 That's why the fire trucks couldn't enter and the firefighters had to call their hosts

01:51 so that the fire could be extinguished.

01:54 The local authorities and DSWD have already visited the affected families.

02:01 According to the Cebu City Fire Station Office,

02:04 although the investigation is still being deepened,

02:06 the fire was so strong that it could burn two barangays.

02:10 It might be some other things, like an octopus connection.

02:16 You get an extension cord, you plug it, and then you extend the extension cord.

02:26 So that's an octopus connection.

02:28 And then there's a pinch wire.

02:31 It means that the wire is torn.

02:36 It's dangerous for it to get short or spark.

02:43 According to the BFP,

02:45 the two different fires caused almost 10 million damage.

02:50 From PTV Cebu, Jesse Atienza, for the nation.

02:54 for the people.
