The eight Filipino crew members of the 'Eternity C' arrived back home on the night of July 16. via flight SV870 at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) Terminal 1 in Pasay City. The seafarers will receive financial assistance through the DMW’s Aksyon Fund, the Overseas Workers Welfare Administration’s Emergency Repatriation Fund, and the Department of Social Welfare and Development; medical care from the Department of Health; New NAIA Infra Corp. support under the Department of Transportation; and comprehensive reintegration assistance from the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority and other members of the National Reintegration Network to ensure a smooth, productive, and sustainable transition back to their families. The DMW was still verifying reports that three of the 13 missing Filipino seafarers were killed. There were also reports that the unaccounted sailors were being held hostage by the Houthi terrorists.

Pinoys to be repatriated - Indian guard on his way back home
The Filipino survivors of the 'Eternity C' were expected to be repatriated from Saudi Arabia in a few days, as was previously the case with 17 Filipino crew members from the 'Magic Seas'. That ship, also Greek and sailing under the Liberian flag, was attacked by Houthi terrorists in the Red Sea one day before the 'Eternity C' was siml. There were no fatalities on the Magic Seas. The death toll following the attack on the 'Eternity C' was standing at nine. Five crew members who were still missing have been presumed dead. Six crew members were still being held captive by the Houthi terrorists. At the time of the attack, 22 crew members and three security guards were on board the 'Eternity C'. At least four crew members have died from injuries sustained during the initial attack on the Greek ship sailing under the Liberian flag. Ten crew members were rescued from the water, including eight Filipino crew members and two security guards. The environmental impact of the sinking of both ships was currently being assessed. The Indian national Augustin Dassayan, a security guard, was repatriated on July 15, facilited by the Indian Consulate in Jeddah. Along with several other crew members, he had been brought to Jizan on July 14, where a team from the Indian Consulate ensured his well-being.

Ten crew members arrived in Saudi Arabia
The ten rescued crew members from the'Eternity C' have arrived safely at Jizan on July 14. Six Filipino crew members were pulled from the water and taken to Yemen by the Houthi terrorists. The Houthi communications center claimed that the survivors were provided with medical care and taken to a "safe location." The terrorists did not provide a timeline for their release and repatriation.At least four crew members were believed to have died from injuries sustained in the initial attack, and five others who were missing have now been presumed dead The lost seafarers included seven Filipinos, one Russian national and one Indian security guard. The Eternity C had beem attacked about 50 nautical miles southwest of Hodeidah by multiple skiffs. The vessel was then hit by multiple missile strikes, disabling its engine and causing it to flood. There were two penetrations in the hatch cover of the aftmost hold, one penetration in the accomodation block, and one internal blast in the engine room, evidenced by a hole in the hull with outward petaling of the shell plating. The environmental impact of the recent sinkings was still being assessed. The ship's owner, Guildford Navigation and the shipping company Cosmo Ship Management, which were behind the bulk carrier, have been left without coverage after the insurance company refused to take out war risk insurance for the ship, and were suffering a loss of between 15 and 20 million dollars.
