[Title] => DOLE: No OFW deployment to Lebanon despite ceasefire
[Summary] => The Department of Labor and Employment clarified that the ban on the deployment of overseas Filipino workers to Lebanon stays despite the declaration of a ceasefire.
In an advisory, Labor Secretary Arturo Brion reiterated that DOLE's policy banning deployment and redeployment to the war-torn country is still in force even if the United Nations has declared the cessation of hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah.
Brion issued this statement amidst reports that the Philippine government may resume deployment of OFWs in view of the current ceasefire.

[Title] => Ceasefire in effect, world waits… and hopes
[Summary] =>
The thing to remember, first of all, is that a "cessation of hostilities" is nowhere near the status of a comprehensive peace agreement. Although referred to loosely in media as a "ceasefire," some international law experts are even carefully distinguishing a cessation of hostilities from a ceasefire. Apparently, what we’re seeing in Lebanon is technically not a ceasefire.

[Title] => Paglilikas sa mga Pinoy sa Lebanon tigil din
[Summary] =>
Nagdadalawang-isip na umano ang gobyerno kung itutuloy pa ang "mass evacuation" at repatriation ng mga Pinoy sa Lebanon matapos ang pagdedeklara ng "ceasefire" sa pagitan ng Israel Defense Force at Hezbollah militants.
Nabatid na naglalatag na ng mga hakbang ang Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) kung ipagpapatuloy ang isinasagawang pagpapauwi sa mga Pinoy, ito’y matapos umanong ihayag ni Sen. Juan Ponce Enrile na hindi praktikal ang pagpapauwi sa lahat ng OFW sa Lebanon dahil hindi naman umano apektado ng giyera ang buong teritoryo.

[Title] => De-escalation
[Summary] =>
As I write this, there is optimism that the world has seen the worst of fighting in Lebanon.
The Israeli Defense Force (IDF) appears to be hurrying up its grinding ground offensive in Southern Lebanon. Commando units have been deployed in Tyre and other cities in quick insertions clearly intended to decapitate the Hezbollah. The bombing has been as intense as it was in the first week of this war.
