Malacañang strongly condemned the two explosions that occurred in a military base in Sulu, which killed and wounded scores of people.
Presidential Spokesman Salvador Panelo said that authorities are eyeing the bandit Abu Sayyaf Group (ASG) behind this dastardly attack.
“We will pursue them and all other terrorist groups that sow and instill fear among our people. We will run after them until they can run no more,” Panelo said in a statement.
Panelo assured that “the government will harness all its might to destroy the enemies of the state as well as their supporters to secure lasting peace in the region.”
The Palace official warned that if these bandits have not learned from the terrorists who were annihilated in Marawi, “then this time they will.”
