It was an answered prayer for Lorie Herrera of San Ildefonso, Bulacan to see her son Lloyd Vince, safe and sound.
They embraced tightly at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport where Lloyd Vince arrived after almost a year of post graduate agro-studies in Israel, which is currently locked in a war with Hamas.
"Nag-alala po talaga ako dahil natatakot ako para sa anak ko. Kung ano po ang mangyayari sa kanya, hindi niya po kami kasama. Natakot po talaga ako. Pero nag-pray lang talaga ako kay God na makasama siya namin," she said."Di ko po kasi alam na ano may kaguluhan. Sinabi lang po sa akin ng manugang ko. Hindi lang po nagsabi sa akin ang anak ko na may giyera, may problema daw po ang bansang Israel, para hindi ako magalala," she said.
Lloyd Vincent and some Filipino students were staying in Ashkelon, Israel which is just 9 kilometers away from Gaza, the center of the war between Israel and Hamas.But the students admitted they are still traumatized of what they have witnessed in Israel.Meanwhile, another batch of post-graduate Filipino students are expected to arrive in Manila tomorrow from Israel.
