President Rodrigo Duterte warned Filipinos of more bombings as PNP Chief Dela Rosa confirmed that the Davao City bombing is affiliated to the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria or ISIS.
After his working visit in Indonesia, Duterte released a statement saying, “There will be more [bombings] because of retaliations, reprisals.”
However, no details have been revealed by the President due to the ongoing investigations.
He added that, “There will be a day of reckoning. Wait for it.”
On the other hand, Dela Rosa said in an event last Sunday, “They share the same faith as that of the Abu Sayyaf group. They both pledged allegiance to ISIS.”
He also added that authorities have already identified the person who is actually responsible for planting the bomb. However, they refused reveal acknowledge the suspect’s name.
Multiple charges are being filed against the suspect. The suspect is around 30 years old, slim build and 5’7 to 5’8 in height.
President Duterte said that he doubts Davao City would be a suitable place for the Association of Southeast Asian Nations summit next following.
