PH joins world in addressing threats posed by IS in Syria 0 SHARES Share it! Share TweetBy Roy MabasaThe Philippine government has thrown its support behind the efforts of the international community in addressing the threats posed by the remnants of the Islamic State (IS) terrorists in Syria. The fight is not over yet as the threat posed by Daesh remnants and other affiliated terrorist groups remains. The Philippines stands solidly behind the efforts of the international community in addressing this threat,” the Department of Foreign Affairs said in a statement released over the weekend. The explosion occurred hours after the United States-backed militia fighting the IS in Syria announced the end of the jihadists’ control of any territory in both Iraq and Syria.
