The facts
The clip came from a BusinessWorld report of 19 June 2025, when repatriated workers received 150,000 pesos (75,000 each from the Department of Migrant Workers and OWWA) during the earlier Israel-Iran conflict. OWWA said on 5 March 2026 that the new claim was not true. The recycled video passed 571,000 views.
