00:00 The landslide in Benguet is also everywhere.
00:03 Aside from some roads that cannot be passed, some houses were also destroyed live from Baguio.
00:10 Russell Simorio was in touch with GMA Regional TV 1 North Central Luzon.
00:16 Russell?
00:17 It's still raining continuously, so the incidents of landslides here in the province of Benguet are continuously being recorded.
00:24 Some confirmed deaths were also victims of landslides due to the storm in the entire Cordillera.
00:30 Suddenly, a large part of this mountain collapsed in the Barangay Balili, Mangkayan, Benguet.
00:39 The ground on the road was damaged and it looked like water that was washed away from some structures and the vehicle that passed by.
00:47 Residents were also able to escape near the place where the landslide happened.
00:53 The landslide activities there were very active, so it was closed.
00:57 It was just accessible to our residents.
01:01 In the latrine of the province of Benguet, this part of the road was already damaged.
01:06 After more than 20 meters of riprap, debris was washed away by the river.
01:12 It's good that the vehicles here were able to escape immediately.
01:16 Even in the Barangay Pugues, there was a collapse.
01:19 The parking area of this vacant lot where the land was being collected from the top of the mountain is being used as a parking area.
01:27 The authority placed a plastic barrier on the top of the mountain so that it won't get wet.
01:34 The tendency is that if it gets wet because of the continuous rain, the collection can still be followed.
01:40 The collection was very strong. Even the vehicle that was there, the land was almost covered.
01:47 Because of the incidents of landslides, several roads were not able to pass.
01:52 Like the Benguet Nueva Vizcaya Road, Governor Bado Dangwa National Road, and Kenon Road.
01:58 In Kenon Road, a backhoe is being used to remove the debris that was washed away.
02:04 There are still ongoing landslides, particularly in our road networks.
02:11 Though we cleared it, our land was saturated.
02:16 According to the authority, 214 houses in Cordillera were damaged because of the landslide.
02:23 208 were partially damaged, while 6 were totally damaged.
02:28 Meanwhile, Chico River in Mountain Province is also near the spilling level.
02:37 Mel, here in Bernham Park in Baguio City, the authority is continuing the clearing operation on the trees that were hit by the storm.
02:45 The restoration is also underway to restore the supply of electricity in the entire province of Benguet.
02:51 That is the latest from Baguio City. Back to you, Mel.
02:55 Thank you very much, Russell Simorio of GMA Regional TV 1 North Central Luzon.
