High-profile contractor Cezarah Rowena "Sarah" Discaya has been granted temporary liberty after the Regional Trial Court (RTC) of Lapu-Lapu City approved her petition for bail in connection with a β‚±96.5-million criminal case.

The court's ruling allows Discaya to post bail while legal proceedings continue. The case remains pending before the court, and the approval of bail does not constitute a judgment on the merits of the charges.

Further details regarding the court's ruling and the ongoing case are expected as proceedings move forward.

Two Grade 10 students were apprehended after authorities recovered a caliber .38 revolver and a knife during a surprise inspection at the Aparri School of Arts and Trades on Thursday, June 26, 2026.

The weapons were discovered during an unannounced security inspection conducted by personnel of the 2nd Provincial Mobile Force Company inside the school.

According to the Philippine National Police (PNP), the students admitted they had been cutting classes and claimed they were carrying the weapons due to a personal grudge against another individual.

The incident comes just days after the deadly school shooting in Tacloban City, as authorities continue to strengthen security measures in schools nationwide.

The 15-year-old student accused in the deadly shooting at San Jose National High School in Tacloban City, Leyte is now facing multiple criminal charges, authorities confirmed.

According to initial reports, the minor suspect has been charged with three counts of murder, three counts of frustrated murder, and multiple counts of serious physical injuries in connection with the June 22 school shooting that left three people dead and several others injured.

Meanwhile, authorities said the 14-year-old co-suspect was not charged, citing the Juvenile Justice and Welfare Act of 2006, which exempts children below the age of criminal responsibility from criminal liability. The child, however, remains subject to the appropriate intervention measures under the law.

The investigation into one of the country's deadliest school shooting incidents in recent years remains ongoing as authorities continue to determine the full circumstances surrounding the attack.

Authorities are investigating alleged social media conversations that surfaced online following the deadly shooting inside San Jose National High School in Tacloban City on June 22, 2026.

The leaked messages, reportedly involving the minor suspects, allegedly indicate that the group discussed bringing fi****ms, causing chaos, and carrying out the attack at the school. Authorities have yet to officially confirm the authenticity of the circulating screenshots as the investigation continues.

The incident claimed the lives of three individuals, while several others sustained injuries.

The minor suspects, classified as Children in Conflict with the Law (CICL), are now under police custody. Investigators are also tracing the origins of the fi****ms used in the attack after reports revealed that one firearm was allegedly owned by a female police officer, who is also the aunt of one of the suspects, while another was reportedly registered to a security agency based in Cebu City.

Authorities continue to deepen their investigation to determine the circumstances surrounding the incident and whether additional individuals may be held accountable.

PHILIPPINES SURROUNDED BY MAJOR EARTHQUAKE-GENERATING TRENCHES, PHIVOLCS REMINDS PUBLIC

As recent strong earthquakes continue to raise concerns across the country, seismologists are reminding Filipinos that the Philippines sits near several active ocean trenches capable of generating powerful earthquakes and tsunamis.

According to the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS), six major active trenches surround the country:

πŸ”Ί Manila Trench
πŸ”Ί East Luzon Trough
πŸ”Ί Philippine Trench
πŸ”Ί Negros Trench
πŸ”Ί Sulu Trench
πŸ”Ί Cotabato Trench

Experts have previously identified the Manila Trench, Philippine Trench, and Negros Trench among the offshore fault systems capable of producing earthquakes exceeding Magnitude 8.0 under certain conditions.

The advisory comes amid renewed public attention on earthquake preparedness following several significant seismic events recorded in different parts of the country in recent weeks.

While PHIVOLCS emphasizes that earthquakes cannot be predicted, authorities continue to encourage households, schools, and businesses to review emergency plans, prepare disaster kits, and familiarize themselves with evacuation procedures.

The Philippines lies within the Pacific Ring of Fire, one of the most seismically active regions in the world, making earthquake preparedness a continuing necessity rather than an occasional precaution.

Residents in northern Cebu may have noticed a series of earthquakes occurring near Bogo City in recent days. According to DOST-PHIVOLCS, multiple tremors have been recorded in the area, including several aftershocks following the stronger earthquake that was felt across parts of Cebu and the Visayas.

Experts explain that earthquake clusters are not unusual after a significant seismic event. In many cases, these smaller tremors are classified as aftershocks, which occur as the Earth's crust adjusts to stress changes caused by the main earthquake.

However, PHIVOLCS continues to closely monitor the activity to determine whether the earthquakes are part of a normal aftershock sequence or indicate movement along nearby faults. As of now, there is no official statement suggesting that the ongoing tremors are a precursor to a larger earthquake.

While the recurring earthquakes do not necessarily mean a stronger quake is imminent, they serve as an important reminder that Cebu remains vulnerable to seismic hazards. Authorities encourage the public to review emergency plans, identify safe areas at home and work, and prepare emergency kits.

PHIVOLCS advises residents to stay informed through official channels and avoid spreading unverified claims regarding earthquake predictions, as no technology currently exists that can accurately predict the exact time, location, and magnitude of an earthquake.
