MANILA, Philippines — The Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) said that there were no Filipinos either among the fatalities or those seriously injured in the tour-bus accident that occurred on in upstate New York on Aug. 22, 2025 (local time).
The crash left five people dead and at least 49 others were injured when a chartered bus overturned along the New York State Thruway near Pembroke, roughly 30 miles east of Buffalo.
