Julie Anne San Jose, Rayver Cruz, Boobay now back in PH after cancellation of Israel concert
Julie Anne San Jose, Rayver Cruz, Boobay, and the rest of the Sparkle team in Tel Aviv, Israel are now back in the Philippines.
The Kapuso stars arrived at the Clark International Airport on Monday evening following the cancellation of their "Luv Trip Na, Laff Trip Pa" show due to the recent attacks in Israel.
They were safe in Tel Aviv when the conflict erupted, but Boobay said they could hear explosions and alarms.
Julie Anne admitted that they were saddened with what happened and scared to experience that kind of situation for the first time.
Julie Anne, Rayver, and Boobay also thanked everyone who prayed for their safety and also expressed their gratitude to GMA Network, Sparkle, and the managers and producers who took care of them in Israel.
"Luv Trip Na, Laff Trip Pa," was supposed to be held at the Smolarz Auditorium at Tel Aviv University, but it was cancelled after Palestinian group Hamas launched attacks on Saturday.
Over 700 casualties were reported in Israel while 560 were killed in Gaza as Israeli troops conduct retaliatory strikes.
Over 24,000 Filipinos are currently in Israel. They have been urged to take precautions amid the attacks.
According to the Department of Foreign Affairs, one Filipino was reportedly abducted and six others were reported missing.
