Bomb hits civilian houses outside
Marawi war zone -- witnesses

COTABATO CITY: A bomb has hit homes outside Marawi City amid ongoing military air strikes and artillery bombardments on the lair of the Islamic State (IS)-inspired local terrorists in the city, civil society groups said.

No one was hurt in the explosion on Sunday but residents were “shocked and traumatized” because the bombs landed outside the war zone, “only a few hundred meters away from AFP (Armed Forces of the Philippines) detachments and checkpoints,” Drieza Abato Lininding of the Bangsamoro Youth for Peace and Development said.
