Philippines identifies 2 members of pro-Islamic State group as bomb suspects
Wednesday, 6 December 2023
Philippine police on Wednesday named two men suspected of being involved in a deadly blast that killed four during a Catholic Mass in a southern city at the weekend. Those suspected of orchestrating the attack in Marawi were members of Daulah-Islamiyah Maute, a pro-Islamic State militant group that took control of the city in 2017 and held it throughout five months of ground offensives and air strikes by the military. Philippines President Ferdinand Marcos Jr had blamed "foreign terrorists" for the explosion.
