In Tacloban City, a school still grieving three students killed in a campus shooting last month found itself shuttered again — this time by threatening messages naming specific children, shared through a class group chat. San Jose National High School suspended classes on Tuesday as police and cybercrime units moved to trace the account and assess whether the danger was real. The incident reminds us that communities wounded by violence carry a heightened vulnerability, where even unverified words online can reopen wounds and halt the ordinary rhythms of learning and life.
