12:01 13 Filipinos were evacuated from Gaza and are now on their way to Egypt.
12:05 From Cairo, Egypt, we have first report from Rafi Tiba.
12:08 Rafi?
12:10 It's too early in the morning here in Cairo
12:13 where DSY, Undersecretary Eduardo de Vega, arrived
12:16 and where we expect more Filipinos to arrive
12:19 after crossing the Rafa border crossing.
12:22 During his visit here in Cairo,
12:24 Undersecretary Eduardo de Vega again encouraged
12:27 the remaining Filipinos in Gaza to take advantage of the opportunity to evacuate.
12:32 Aside from congratulating the repatriation,
12:35 de Vega also returned to deliver a personal message
12:38 to the foreign minister of Egypt from Foreign Affairs Secretary Enrique Manalo.
12:42 The conditions in Gaza are very bad.
12:50 It's better to proceed with our mandatory repatriation.
12:57 Meanwhile, the border crossing is still open
13:02 because we cannot guarantee that it will always be open.
13:05 We hope in the next few days you will come.
13:08 If not, we respect your decision but we will see what we can do to help you.
13:15 Currently, 13 Filipinos have arrived in Cairo after crossing the Rafa border crossing
13:22 along with their spouses and Palestinian relatives.
13:25 It's time to arrive in Cairo.
13:27 Only 20 Filipinos will remain in Gaza who do not want to leave
13:32 or who cannot leave because their Palestinian relatives do not want to.
13:36 However, the VFA is still happy that many Filipinos have been encouraged to leave Gaza
13:40 because most of them have been living there for a long time.
13:44 It's good that 80% of the people have passed through the border.
13:50 Originally, there were no Palestinians who could join us but now there are.
13:55 First here in Cairo, Ivan, de Vega will also head to Israel.
14:01 This morning, his third batch of people who have crossed the Rafa border crossing will arrive here in Cairo.

14:26 Good morning, Ivan.
14:31 There are many people who are being harassed by the MMDA
14:36 here in the southbound lane of EDSA before they board the Magallanes flight.
14:39 Fly over.
14:40 Sorry, sorry.
14:41 The busway violators were caught from private vehicles to motorcycles.
14:45 Among the many who were caught, a part of the busway was stolen from a parking lot.
14:50 The busway violators are now on a continuous journey to public buses.
14:54 The violators are facing higher fines and penalties starting today.
15:00 These operations are being conducted to prevent the violation of the EDSA busway.
15:07 These operations are being conducted to remind motorists not to cross the exclusive bus lane.
15:14 So, Ivan, we saw earlier that the ticket is 5,000 pesos for the use of the exclusive bus lane.
15:23 And at this time, the bus lane is already clear.
15:26 The motorists have already been taken away.
15:29 Actually, there are still enforcers waiting for some parts of this.
15:33 So, they cannot be a bully and just follow the traffic laws.
15:37 This is the first news from EDSA Magallanes.
15:39 Bamalegre for GMA Integrated News.
15:42 Some motorists were stopped and arrested who were still on the EDSA busway.
