“China arms auti communist regimes” had been sprading in Chinese Internet since several years ago. But in fact China’s aid to Philippines was to fight against an Islamist terrorist organization “https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maute_group”. I don’t know how could a islamist organization become “maoist organization”. Also I was banned on https://lemmygrad.ml/c/hoxhaism for repeating deleted comment. I accept but I think Wisconkom should treat himself with the same standard. He circumvented the ban by creating a new account. He should be treated with the same standard.

      Original text from wikipedia Battle of Marawi Main article: Battle of Marawi On May 23, 2017, the Maute group attacked the city of Marawi in the Philippines. The attack resulted in the destruction of homes, the deaths and wounding of soldiers, policemen, and civilians, torching of a mosque, and a hospital being overrun. The former leader of Abu Sayyaf, Isnilon Hapilon was seen with the group during the attack. The attack resulted in President Duterte declaring a state of martial law across the entire island of Mindanao with the possibility that it be expanded nationwide.[37][38]

      Majority of the evacuees and refugees have been housed in different barangays in Iligan. On June 1, 2017, Iligan Mayor Celso G. Regencia issued an order to the residents, who legally possessed firearms, to shoot terrorists who trespass their properties.[39]

      Omar Maute was killed by the Armed Forces of the Philippines on October 16, 2017, along with former Abu Sayyaf chief Isnilon Hapilon.[40] The group was later declared “practically wiped out” by the armed forces following the deaths of the seven Maute brothers. While the public was told not to worry about the group for now, younger members of the group might assume leadership.[41]
