OWWA: Pinoys wounded in Iran attacks vs. Israel now 6, 1 critical

The number of Filipinos wounded in the missile strikes launched by Iran against  Israel has risen to six, according to the Overseas Workers Welfare Administration (OWWA).

In a “State of the Nation” report on Monday, OWWA said four Filipinos have been discharged from the hospital, while another Filipino is still recovering.

A Filipino caregiver remains in critical condition after being crushed by debris from a building damaged by one of the air strikes.

On the fourth day of hostilities between Israel and Iran, a mandatory evacuation has yet to be implemented, but the Department of Migrant Workers said it will do its best to repatriate Filipinos who want to go back to the Philippines. —Mariel Celine Serquiña/RF, GMA Integrated News
