On June 22, 2026, a mass shooting occurred at San Jose National High School in Tacloban, potentially marking the first completed attack by the extremist network known as 764. Cybersecurity expert Angel Redoble presented findings to the Philippine Senate, indicating that the network, classified as a 'tier one' threat by the FBI, coerces minors into harmful actions through manipulation on platforms like Discord and Telegram. The Philippine National Police reported rescuing 24 minors connected to the network since October 2025, with five having self-harmed. Redoble noted that previous foiled attacks suggested local recruiters for 764 are now operating in the Philippines. The investigation is ongoing, and while the link to 764 has not been confirmed, evidence from social media posts suggests local grooming activities are present. Schools are urged to be vigilant as many students may be at risk of being groomed online.
