In a tragic incident, two young siblings, a four-year-old girl and her three-year-old brother, died in a house fire in Brgy. Biluso, Silang, Cavite.

The fire, which started at approximately 3:45PM local time yesterday, was brought under control by 4:51PM.

Two houses were destroyed in the blaze, including the home of the victims. The cause of the fire is currently under investigation by the Silang Fire Station.
