Duterte umuwi agad galing Russia; para bigyan suporta ang tropa ng gobyerno kontra Maute Group
MOSCOW – Dahil sa pag-atake ng Maute group sa Marawi at nag-utos ng Martial Law sa buong Mindanao President Duterte nakaalis na ng bansang Russia pabalik ng Pilipinas
Umalis na ng Moscow ang pangulo bandang ala-1:42 ng madaling araw ng magtake-off ang Philippine Airlines kasama ang iba pang delegasyon ng Pangulong Duterte at inaasahang lalapag ang eroplano mamayang alas-4:30 sa Manila.
Bago umalis, nagkaroon ng mabilisang bilateral meeting sina Pangulong Duterte at Russian Federation President Vladimir Putin na nagpahayag ng pag-unawa sa desisyon ng pangulo.
Tiniyak naman ni Foreign Affairs Sec. Alan Peter Cayetano na tuloy ang paglagda sa mga agreements kasama ang kanyang Russian counterparts.
Magpapaiwan din daw si Sec. Cayetano habang mauna ng babalik ng Pilipinas si Pangulong Duterte para tutukan ang sitwasyon sa Mindanao.
Nauunawaan naman daw ng Russian counterparts ang desisyon ng pangulo at suportado ang kanyang hakbang para maresolba ang terorismo lalo sa Marawi City.
“I have spoken to our — to my counterpart here in Moscow and have explained the situation and they understand that the security of the Filipino people especially in Marawi and the whole Mindanao is a priority. They understand that the presence of the President — of President Duterte is essential in the Philippines but I will be staying behind. The agreements will be signed and we will have a bilateral meeting with the Honorable Minister of Foreign Affairs Lavrov,” ani Cayetano.
Nauna rito, mismong si Presidential Spokesman Ernesto Abella ang nag-anunsyo kagabi kaugnay sa Martial Law declaration sa Mindanao.
“The President has called me and asked me to announce that as of 10 p.m. Manila time, he has already declared Martial Law for the entire island of Mindanao. SDES Guevarra has clarified that this was possible on the grounds of existence of rebellion because of what is happening in Mindanao based on Article 7, Section 18 of the Constitution. This is good for 60 days. I am going to defer now to Secretary Del Lorenzana, Secretary of National Defense, to give us a backgrounder and then to Secretary Alan Cayetano of the Department of Foreign Affairs..”
Sa karagdagang pahayag ni Sec. Lorenzana, sinabi ng kalihim na tatlo ang nasawi sa tropa ng gobyerno, isa sa pulis at dalawa sa army habang labing dalawa naman ang sugatan.
"Our troops reacted properly but as of tonight, the Maute group burned several facilities, the St. Mary's Church, city jail, the Ninoy Aquino school and the Dansalan college. The Maute fighters still occupy also the main street of Marawi City,"
"As of tonight, there were three killed government troops, one PNP and two army... and 12 wounded. The whole of Marawi City is blacked out, there is no light and there are Maute snipers all around. So the troops are still on holding and several troops have joined them from other several neighboring units," pahayag ni Sec. Lorenzana
