Rapunzel count now seven

Maid count: two dead, two just arrived in Manila, injured, and now three more injured escaping their employers:

A Filipina remained in critical condition at a hospital in Beirut after jumping off her employer's building in a bid to escape the war in Lebanon,...
Embassy officials, meanwhile, said that two other Filipinas who also jumped off their employers' building are now in their custody. ....The reported injuries of the three Filipinas followed the cases of two other workers repatriated from the war-torn country on Tuesday.
...Aside from those injured, the Department of Foreign Affairs confirmed last week the death of Michelle Tomagan and Mary Jane Pangilinan.

GMA's plan is to retrain them into "supermaids" so they can get jobs.
Maybe she should train them in rockclimbing, so they don't have to jump
