Failon Ngayon looks into vintage bomb explosions

-

MANILA, Philippines - Several decades have passed since World War II ended but the armament used during wartime turned out to be destructive and perilous until today.

Today at 4:30 p.m., Ted Failon peers into the recent cases of death resulting from the explosion of vintage bombs in the country on ABS-CBN’s Failon Ngayon.

One of the victims of these explosions was scrap dealer Alex Carbongco, 44, of Taytay, Rizal. In the evening of Jan. 24, he was hammering a mortar bomb that he had purchased which went off and instantly killed him. His son Angelo, who was nearby when the incident occurred, sustained wounds after shrapnel hit him in the back.

Because of these explosions, questions have been raised as to whether the SAF has the capacity and proper training to handle bombs.
