From the Manila, Philippines’ report, all 17 Filipino crew members of the MV Magic Seas —a cargo vessel recently attacked by Houthi rebels in the Red Sea— have been safely repatriated and are now receiving comprehensive support from the government.
According to the Department of Migrant Workers (DMW), six seafarers arrived on July 11, followed by the remaining 11 on Saturday night, who were welcomed by Migrant Workers Secretary Hans Leo Cacdac and DMW officials at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport Terminal 3.
Cacdac commended the seafarers for their bravery during the incident and underscored that government aid would go beyond immediate financial assistance.
The report also stated that the DMW chief said each seafarer will undergo full medical check-ups, including physical, mental health, and psychosocial assessments, to aid in their recovery and reintegration.
The repatriation was made possible through close coordination among multiple government agencies, including the Department of Foreign Affairs, Overseas Workers Welfare Administration, Migrant Workers Offices, Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD), Department of Health, MIAA Medical Team, and the Department of Transportation.
The government, through Cacdac, extended its gratitude to all involved, particularly DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian, for their swift and compassionate response.
