00:07 Good morning. Here are the first news of GMA Integrated News.
00:12 President Bongbong Marcos ordered his agency to check the 17 Filipino seafarers
00:19 who were involved in the hijacking of a Hoody group in a ship in the Red Sea.
00:24 According to the President, the Department of Foreign Affairs in Iran, Oman, Qatar and Saudi Arabia is already in contact with him for an update.
00:31 The Department of Migrant Workers is also talking to the family of the seafarers.
00:35 The Manning Agency of the ship, Galaxy Leader, is also in contact with him.
00:39 According to an official of Hoody, they are targeting the ships owned by Israel as a condemnation of the attack on Gaza.
00:47 But according to the Israel Defense Forces, the British, the owner and the Japanese are the ones operating the ship.
00:53 The United Kingdom and the United States are also calling for the crew to be released.
00:57 [Music]
01:03 A man was arrested for a bypass operation in Quezon City for selling drugs.
01:08 The suspect denied the charges.
01:10 We have first news from James Agustin.
01:16 The operatives of the QCPD Station 14 filed a warrant of arrest against the 23-year-old man
01:22 for a drug-related case in Barangay Holy Spirit, Quezon City.
01:26 The man was arrested on September 15 for a drug bypass operation after he bought shabu.
01:32 He played bargaining in that case.
01:34 He was given probation and was able to pay his fines.
01:40 But he did not show up for the drug dependency evaluation. The court is requiring him to show up.
01:46 The suspect was one of the four most wanted persons of Holy Spirit Police Station.
01:50 He was also jailed twice for an injury.
01:53 He was just pushing in their area of Holy Spirit.
01:56 And the barangay is just next to the parish.
01:59 The barangay is just next to the barangay Commonwealth.
02:02 It's not true sir that I'm selling drugs. I just passed by our police officers.
02:10 But you know that you have a warrant of arrest against you.
02:13 Yes. That's why I didn't leave my house because I know that I'm not doing anything wrong.
02:21 The police is preparing the documents for the return of warrant.
02:25 This is the first news. James Agustin for JEMA Integrated News.
02:30 The resolution that is being requested by the government is now being discussed in the chamber.
02:34 The entry of the International Criminal Court to investigate the war against drugs was allowed.
02:40 Senator Aimee Marcos surprised us with this.
02:43 We have the first news, Mav Gonzalez.
02:46 Seven years after the war against drugs was carried out by the Duterte administration,
02:54 the two resolutions that are being requested by the government to help in the investigation of the International Criminal Court or ICC were discussed in the chamber.
03:03 We are here first and foremost to ensure that the rule of law is upheld
03:09 and that the role of law in obtaining justice for our people, for our constituents is fulfilled.
03:15 This does not mean that there is no jurisdiction of the ICC in the case of crime against humanity that was filed against President Duterte.
03:23 The withdrawing state still needs to help in the investigation of the ICC.
03:29 In the next hearing, the Department of Justice and the Supreme Court will invite the Chamber to get their legal opinion, as well as those in the Executive.
03:39 The President's sister, Senator Aimee Marcos, was surprised by the resolution.
03:44 She was shocked by the problem.
03:47 The Philippines is really a big shame when the ICC enters.
03:53 They can just make it a law.
03:55 Think about it, our sovereignty is being surrendered.
03:58 Our courts are very strong.
04:01 Senator Dalima was released.
04:03 Isn't it strong that the court can be fixed and the judiciary can be prepared?
04:08 I can understand that.
04:10 They were not pitied.
04:12 There are many problems and many political issues that came from the ambition and determination to take up the position in 2025-2028.
04:23 There are many of those.
04:24 But Senator Ronald Bato de la Rosa believes that the resolutions will remain in the Chamber,
04:31 except if it is an action of President Bongbong Marcos.
04:34 The President's decision that he does not want the ICC to enter our sovereignty is clear.
04:40 This July, the President said that the Philippines will not cooperate with the ICC in any way.
04:46 But Representative Edsel Lagman, who is one of the people who signed the resolution,
04:51 believes that the President's view here could change.
04:54 I think that the President will look at the sentiment of the Congress.
05:00 The Executive Agencies can change their minds
05:06 if they see that it is right for our country to cooperate in the investigation of the ICC.
05:12 We are still waiting for the announcement of the issue.
05:15 Here is the first news.
05:16 Mav Gonzales for GMA Integrated News.
05:19 The fight against the hard court was fierce to get the remaining two spots in the final four of NCAA Season 99 Men's Basketball.
05:33 In the first game yesterday, the EAC Generals won against the Benil Blazers.
05:38 The final score was 77-69.
05:41 Despite their defeat, the Blazers entered the final four.
05:45 The Mapua Cardinals defeated the JRU Heavy Bombers in Game 2.
05:49 Yesterday, the Blazers were tied in the standings.
05:52 The final score was 77-74.
05:55 The Mapua Cardinals, LPU Pirates, San Beda Red Lions and Benil Blazers will face each other in the semifinals.
06:04 San Sebastian Golden Stags and Arellano Chiefs will face each other tomorrow.
06:09 San Beda Red Lions and Letran Knights will face each other in the remaining elimination round.
06:16 The Transportation Secretary Jaime Bautista said that it is required for the operators' jeeps to join the cooperative.
06:26 I said that we cannot give them the jeep because they don't want to consolidate.
06:36 We think that this is an important component of the public utility modernization program.
06:44 If the operators surrender their franchise to LTPRB,
06:49 the operators will have no right to live because they don't have a franchise.
06:54 Consolidation is one of the disagreements between the transport group and the government.
07:01 According to Manibel and Piston, they are still calling for the cancellation of the deadline of consolidation on December 31.
07:09 Piston is asking for a extension, according to Bautista.
07:14 The franchise will be extended for five years and the companies will be exempted from the fines for non-compliance with the PUV modernization.
07:23 Oxygen is lacking in the brain due to the loss of the brain of the death of apprentice Man, Mori Kaguay.
07:33 The out-of-scene of the national bureau of investigation was the result of that.
07:37 No injuries were found in his head and other parts of his body.
07:41 It is possible that his death was caused by the loss of consciousness in the middle of the water,
07:47 search and rescue or WASAR training of the Philippine Coast Guard.
07:51 The investigation of the NBI is still ongoing to determine if the trainers of Kaguay have been punished.
07:57 If it is proven that they are lacking, the PCG promised to punish the training personnel.
08:06 The seven persons deprived of liberty also want to return their testimony against former Senator Laila Delima.
08:13 In the letter they were given to the court, which is handling the case, they said that they were forced to deny Delima.
08:21 The prisoners also asked to be transferred to a safer place in the Philippines.
08:25 The Delima's camp has already issued an urgent motion to transfer the prisoners and strengthen their statements to the court.
08:33 Two prisoners have already said that they want to return their testimony against Delima.
08:39 We are still hearing comments about this from the Department of Justice.
08:43 Delima is now acquitted for two cases of conspiracy to commit drug trading in the Muntinlupa Regional Trial Court.
08:50 Only one case is left.
09:00 Alright, here's the quick news this Thursday morning.
09:03 The poster of Firefly, the official entry of GMA Pictures and GMA Public Affairs in the 2023 Metro Manila Film Festival, has been released.
09:11 Featured in the poster is Ton-Ton, played by Sparkle Child star Ewen Micael.
09:16 His mother, the multi-awarded actress Alessandra De Rossi, will be joining him.
09:21 Firefly is a coming-of-age road trip drama about the search of a child on the island of fireflies
09:27 that was mentioned by his mother in their bedtime stories.
09:31 The film starring Alden Richards and Julia Montes, "Five Breakups and Romance", will be released in the U.S. starting tomorrow.
09:40 The certified blockbuster film will be released in the cinemas in California.
09:44 Our countrymen in the U.S. will watch the entanglement story starring Lance and Justin.
09:49 Good luck.
09:51 Aside from some not-so-good items, the price of chicken has also increased.
09:56 Christmas is coming.
09:58 Live from Manila, we have first news for Darling Kyne.
10:01 Darling.
10:03 The price of chicken in the market in Manila has increased from P10 to P20.
10:13 Our talkies said that the buyers are expecting the price to continue to rise next week because the holiday season is about to start.
10:24 From P160 to P170, P180 to P190 per kilo of chicken in the market in Manila.
10:36 It's already high. Last time we only got P10. Now it's already high.
10:41 What can you say?
10:43 It's already high. No one is buying. Everything is already high.
10:47 That's also what Marlene said. She's buying for a public elementary school.
10:53 She said that they can't just raise the price because the children are poor.
10:58 It should be lowered because of the hard life now.
11:03 Some sellers said that they were not surprised. This is what usually happens when the holiday season is about to start.
11:11 I don't know if it's because of the climate or... The price is always going up.
11:18 We are used to it because it's always like that. It's always going up when it's December.
11:23 And based on their experience in the past few years, it will gradually increase next week.
11:29 It's going to gradually increase until Christmas. It's going to increase.
11:34 It's going to reach P200 per kilo.
11:37 Just like last time.
11:39 Just like last time.
11:40 Based on the last price monitor issued by the Department of Agriculture,
11:49 the price of chicken per kilo will reach P210 per kilo in other cities in Metro Manila.
11:55 That's the first news here in Manila. I'm Darlene Kaye for GMA Integrated Loops.
12:01 If you plan to go on vacation in Boracay this holiday season, good news!
12:07 The Atlantic Provincial Government has already expanded the requirements for tourists.
12:12 It's no longer required for tourists to show their hotel vouchers based on the new executive order.
12:18 So tourists can now enter the island at any time and look for a place to stay.
12:23 Before, it was restricted to entering Boracay due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
12:28 And now, it's expanded. Tourists are expecting to see more tourists on Christmas.
12:33 Authorities are reminding people to book a DOT-accredited establishment for a safer vacation.
12:40 Some Chinese ships and aircrafts were spotted while the US and Philippines were conducting a joint patrol in the West Philippine Sea.
12:50 We have first news from Jun Veneration.
12:56 After the Philippine and American fighter jets flew in the West Philippine Sea,
13:01 as a symbol of their joint sea and air patrol,
13:04 the P-8 Poseidon surveillance aircraft of the US Navy flew in.
13:08 It was accompanied by some media to serve as an eye in the sky.
13:12 From a height of 10,000 feet, the aircraft was able to see the two US warships and the Philippine ship.
13:20 A Chinese figurette was also spotted from here, which was able to see the US ships from a distance of 5 miles
13:28 and was inside the exclusive economic zone of the Philippines.
13:31 But it seems that the US surveillance aircraft was hit by a Chinese aircraft
13:37 which seemed to be monitoring the air and sea assets that were in the joint patrol.
13:41 Aside from that, there was no radio challenge or other aggressive actions that China usually does.
13:47 Nothing unusual. Both parties on both sides conducted themselves safe and professionally and normally,
13:56 which is what we are always out here trying to do.
13:58 But aside from surveillance, using a high-tech camera, it was able to zoom even from a distance.
14:03 The P-8 Poseidon submarine was also able to detect the submarine under the sea.
14:07 This is the same surveillance plane of the US that was seen in their resupply mission to the Philippines in Eugene Shoal
14:13 and was able to spot the Chinese ships in the Philippines and the use of water cannons.
14:20 After almost 4 hours of aerial surveillance, the Clark Air Base returned the P-8 Poseidon.
14:26 All mission objectives were met today. We got out and conducted our normal routine patrol of the area.
14:34 Happy to announce it was a mission success.
14:37 President Bongbong Marcos said that the situation in the West Philippine Sea is very serious.
14:43 That's why cooperation between the Philippines and allies like the United States is needed.
14:49 These combined maritime activities between the US and the Philippines and the added assets of the air assets
14:56 just greatly enhances the evolution of our alliance.
15:00 The AFP stated that the joint maritime activity was not without intention.
15:04 It was not to increase tensions in the West Philippine Sea but to strengthen the sovereign rights of the Philippines.
15:10 The National Economic and Development Authority, UNEDA, also believed that the joint patrol in the economy will help.
15:16 The world trade is very much dependent on peace and especially in navigation.
15:25 I think as we contribute in our region to getting that stability, trade will be promoted.
15:37 This is the first news. June Veneration for GMA Integrated News.
15:42 After Singapore and Bangkok, Thailand, the world tour of SB19 in Dubai was also canceled.
15:49 On social media, 1Z Entertainment announced that the show scheduled for tomorrow will not continue.
15:57 1Z asked for a refund and posted details on how to refund the tickets and merch purchased.
16:04 SB19's preparation for their future performances is still ongoing.
