One indication that the Marawi City crisis would soon be over is that there are now fewer enemies that government forces have to contend with after the drawn out fighting claimed more than 400 lives and displaced over 200,000 people.
DAVAO CITY , Philippines – One indication that the Marawi City crisis would soon be over is that there are now fewer enemies that government forces have to contend with after the drawn out fighting claimed more than 400 lives and displaced over 200,000 people.
That was President Duterte’s assessment as he also noted that there is “less resistance and less fighting.”
The President, however, told reporters here at Camp Catitipan last Thursday night that he could not predict exactly when the Marawi crisis would end after the Maute terror group attacked the city last May 23.
“That is something which I cannot really predict. While it indicates a slowing down of the fighting, which ordinarily would indicate also that there is less resistance now, no more fighting,” he said.
Duterte said the crisis in Marawi would be over as soon as government forces retake control of the Islamic city.
This will be a matter of days with the way things are evolving now, he added.
