00:00After several days of intensive training across the Philippine archipelago,

00:04Fulcain and U.S. forces continue to advance through the 2025 iteration of their annual

00:10Multilateral Maritime Event, or the MME, a crucial component of the ongoing Balikatan exercises

00:16recorded as the most complex in the history of the drills.

00:21This year's activity reflects the evolving and increasingly sophisticated nature of global security challenges.

00:28PTV's J.M. Pineda tells us more.

00:35Earlier today, the Philippine Navy began a casualty evacuation simulation,

00:39which is part of the Multilateral Maritime Exercises of Balikatan 2025.

00:43During the exercise, they carefully placed the patient on a stretcher and conducted a medical check

00:48before loading the patient into a helicopter.

00:51They also ensured that the safety straps were properly secured to guarantee the patient's safety.

00:55The patient was then airlifted to a treatment facility for medical attention.

01:01This is one of the scenarios which was carried out by the Philippine Navy personnel of the BRP Ramon Alcaraz,

01:07which could be useful in situations when soldiers need to transport an injured person to a hospital.

01:12The patient, the Philippine Navy helicopter,

01:16The Philippine Navy helicopter AW109.

01:18Agaroon tayo ng dalawang senaryo sa exercise na ito.

01:21Una ay ang pag-transfer natin ng isang non-ambulatory patient,

01:26which is ito yung pasyente na hindi kaya maglakad na kinakailangang ilagay sa isang stretcher.

01:32Pangalawang senaryo ay yung pag-transfer natin ng ambulatory patient,

01:36which is ito yung may kakayahang maglakad at hindi na kinakailangan na isakay sa isang stretcher.

01:42Commander Cruzada also emphasized that treating patients aboard the ship is among the most challenging conditions

01:48so it is essential for soldiers to know what to do in such situations.

01:53Mabigyan ng karampatan at kaagad na lunas sa mga pasyente na dito sa barko

01:58para madala ka agad dito sa ating treatment facility sa kalupan.

02:03Cruzada also clarified that these exercises is not a preparation for any attack but simply part of their training.

02:10He added also that the exercise could be applied to various crisis situation.

02:33The Philippine Navy also reiterated that they remained focused on their mission to strengthen their forces

02:38despite the presence of Chinese PLA Navy ships during the Balikatan exercises.

02:43The safety of all participants in the MME of Balikatan is also the top priority for the Philippine Navy.

02:49That's why they continued to monitor the boomers of Chinese vessels closely during the exercises.
