MANILA — Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte came under fire on Wednesday for threatening to bomb schools run by an indigenous group for allegedly teaching subversion and communism to young Filipinos. "By calling for an attack on schools, Duterte is directing the military to commit war crimes," the organization said in a statement. "Duterte should publicly retract his threat of violence against tribal schools before the military acts on them," the statement added. "They are teaching subversion, communism," he said in a press conference after his state of the nation address in Congress. I will bomb your schools," he added.
