<p><strong>MANILA</strong> — A veteran photojournalist died on Thursday after collapsing while documenting the Traslacion activities in Manila, according to local disaster officials.</p>

<p>The photographer, identified as Son H. Del Mundo, 54, collapsed during the traditional Pahalik rite at Quirino Grandstand, where devotees line up to venerate the image of the Black Nazarene, the Municipal Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office reported.</p>

<p>He was immediately brought to a nearby hospital but was later pronounced dead, MDRRMO spokesperson Chris Aminuddin said.</p>

<p>Meanwhile, the Philippine Red Cross reported that at least 465 individuals sought medical assistance as of midday. Of this total, 218 required monitoring of vital signs, while 223 were treated for minor concerns such as dizziness, abrasions, sprains, and minor wounds.</p>

<p>Another 10 patients were classified as major cases, including puncture injuries, deep cuts, and severe headaches.</p>

<p>One incident involved a devotee who fell face-first onto the pavement after attempting to climb over a barrier along Quezon Boulevard. He sustained swelling and injuries to his face and limbs.</p>

<p>Responders transported him to East Avenue Medical Center, chosen due to lighter road traffic. The hospital is among the Department of Health’s designated facilities for Traslacion-related cases.</p>

<p>Authorities urged elderly participants and those with medical conditions to exercise caution,
