Unannounced INC Rally Disrupts EDSA Commute

An unannounced rally led by Iglesia ni Cristo began early Tuesday morning on EDSA and continued through the night, causing heavy traffic and severe disruptions for morning commuters in Metro Manila. This event directly impacted the daily lives of thousands of commuters in Quezon City and Metro Manila by creating severe traffic congestion, turning a routine morning commute into a major inconvenience. The rally was not pre-announced, so commuters were caught off guard. There is no information on official permits, specific organizer statements, or planned end time, making it difficult for travelers to plan.
