00:09Live on the scene, Marisol Abdurrahman. Marisol.
00:16Emil, the authorities have stopped the search and retrieval of two missing people in Sitio Banaba, Dituyan, in Barangay San Luis, Antipolo City
00:24after their house in Romaragasang Tubig was hit by a landslide on Monday.
00:34We did everything we could to find the two missing bodies.
00:40Along with this announcement is the pouring of tears of Ian.
00:45It seems as if his world has come to an end
00:48because the search for his mother and 8-year-old nephew has been stopped
00:53who was already buried alive after the landslide in their place in Sitio Upper Banaba, Barangay San Luis, Antipolo.
01:00I can't stop crying.
01:03At first, I tried to hold it in, but I couldn't.
01:09I haven't seen my mother yet.
01:14Two days ago, the rescue team stopped the search and retrieval operation due to heavy rains.
01:21Here in this area, ma'am, we don't have the possibility to see the cadavers in this area.
01:28The cadavers might have passed through this area.
01:32So everything was exhausted?
01:34Yes, ma'am.
01:35Before this, the search for the cadavers has been in full swing since this morning.
01:39The rescuers have been wandering in this area of Sitio Banaba for several hours
01:44hoping to find the cadavers.
01:46They have already used the Kenan units of the MMDA to speed up the search and retrieval operation.
01:52But they are confused.
01:54Because of the heavy rains and floods,
01:59there is a possibility that the cadavers might have passed through this area, especially the children.
02:05At this time, Ian still has hope,
02:09especially when he found his son, Ray Ondes, yesterday afternoon.
02:14Ray is one of the eight cadavers in the village because of the heavy rains.
02:20Even if the roof is high, it's hard to get food.
02:27In this part of Sitio Banaba, here in Maytulay, the rescuers are on the streets
02:32because this is where a victim was found yesterday.
02:35In Maytulay, the rescue team of the Kenan units of the MMDA and PNP-EOD
02:40helped in the search for the cadavers.
02:45In the middle of the operation,
02:47a police officer was injured after his arm was cut by an iron.
02:51But the search is still going on.
02:54One, two, three.
02:57I will cut the three of them first while the other two are gone.
03:03There is still hope, but I can't stop it.
03:10What will you do now?
03:12We will leave, ma'am.
03:14We will move to another place.
03:24The barangay, as well as the Antipolo CDRRMO,
03:28will contact the nearby barangay and town
03:30in case there is anyone who can help them in their search.
03:35Meanwhile, the rescuers are asking for help
03:38to help them with their financial problems
03:40because for now, they don't have anything to bury their loved ones.
03:45Thank you very much, Marisol Abdurrahman.
