00:00We will now take an update on the still-burning cold storage facility in Barangay Del Monte in Quezon City.
00:06We will return live to James Agustin. James.
00:14Good morning. It's still hard for the firefighters to operate because of the huge fire that started here in the still-burning cold storage facility.
00:22It's here in FPJ Avenue in Barangay Del Monte in Quezon City.
00:27Until now, the smoke is still coming from the still-burning cold storage facility.
00:33The fire started at 3 a.m. and it was still able to raise the first alarm.
00:39The firetrucks that responded this morning also increased.
00:43There is a part of the cold storage facility where some parts of the roof and walls have been pierced.
00:48The gas station is being closely monitored on its side.
00:52Some firetrucks are also placed there so that water can flow nearby.
00:56To our fellow motorists who are passing through FPJ Avenue, especially those who are heading to Quezon Avenue,
01:05expect heavy traffic because the vehicles are being diverted to the side of Osmeña Street
01:12because of the number of firetrucks that are currently stationed here in FPJ Avenue.
01:18Meanwhile, we are still gathering additional details from the BFP regarding the still-burning cold storage facility.
01:25That is the first news from Quezon City.
01:28I am James Agustin for GEMA Integrated News.
01:31James, is the BFP already monitoring the fire?
01:39Earlier, before we started, we talked to the arson investigator.
01:43He said that it is really hard to enter inside because of the thick smoke.
01:48They need to use breathing apparatus.
01:51Until now, they haven't been able to penetrate or start the investigation
01:55because the operation that the firefighters are carrying out is still going on.
02:00Isn't it dangerous for our fellow motorists?
02:04There might be chemicals that smell. They have breathing apparatus.
02:12Yes, earlier when we arrived here, the smoke was really thick from the cold storage facility.
02:18That is why we need to wear N95 masks.
02:22But now, there is no smell from there and there are no chemicals.
02:26Because of the thick smoke, that is the problem for motorists who pass through this area.
02:33Thank you very much. Be careful, James Agustin.
