PERSPECTIVES/TRENDS:
- PHILIPPINES: Continued skirmishes between the Philippines government and Islamic State-affiliated terrorist groups in the months since the COVID-19 pandemic suggest that the terror threat in the country has not receded. The latest twin bombing in Jolo city on August 24 is yet more proof. There are ongoing terror attacks and extremist ideological activities in South Mindanao.
